Rolling the dice on the law of unintended consequences01 Nov 2005 00:11 GMT4

Looks like a marvelous if rather spendy safety aid... if implemented
and used properly.  But looking at a picture of a big imaging
night-vision display right next to a big GPS display, I wonder how long
Light Timing?31 Oct 2005 18:26 GMT14
Had to go out early and get a couple of items. I pass 5 different traffic
lights. I timed the yellow on all 5. Four ran between 3-3/4 and 4 seconds.
One only held yellow for 2 seconds. Is this the way the red light cameras
are timed? This intersection has had quite a few ...

One can find very old, very cheap prime manual Nikon lenses on ebay,
and they're supposed to be compatible with the Nikon DSLRs.
Has anyone tried this combination?
Thousand Oaks Next 8 Exits31 Oct 2005 11:00 GMT19
As I was driving on southbound US-101, I noticed this sign and decided I'd
keep track to see if there really were 8 Thousand Oaks exits.  Of course
there were 9 exits before I reached the end of the city and entered Los
Angeles County.  I thought "maybe they didn't count the ...
A.M. Madness31 Oct 2005 08:58 GMT4
Retired, I don't get on the road very often during any rush hour. The 2
laners from the small towns heading to the city to work are definitely
hazardous. Coffee in one hand, cell to ear, 70+ in 55 zone, vehicles
entering from side roads in front of fast traffic, tail-gating, ...

I'm third in line in the right-turn-only lane; the green right-turn
arrow is full on. The lead car is not moving. Her left turn signal is
on; apparently she wants to go straight, but got into the
right-turn-only lane by mistake. However, she can't change lanes
Remember - Terrorism is a microscopic problem30 Oct 2005 13:36 GMT51
3000 americans killed on 9-11, you say.  Well... 3000 are killed every
MONTH on our highways. And we know how to stop that - take away the
drivers license of speeders and DUIs and other highway criminals.
Wouldn't cost a thing. In fact it would  save billions of $ a month in
