understand MFFY, I've posted a picture to demonstrate.

Snow tires / cold pavement22 Dec 2005 23:34 GMT3
I have 4 Dayton Winterforce tires on my FWD car every winter.
I know that warm pavement will wear snow tires quickly.  My question is
which is worse: warm or pavement?
If I take the snow tires out for a 200 mile drive on dry highway

Worst stretch of road?21 Dec 2005 19:18 GMT11
Driving California 58 between Bakersfield and I-5 made me think of
this:  What would you nominate as the nastiest stretch of major
thoroughfare (neglecting city streets and minor rural roads and
inherently scenic/tourist routes) that you've driven recently?

We have already identified several categories of Sloth, including
* Sloth Mergers, the doddering ninnies who take the on-ramp at 45 MPH
* Sloth Coasters, the guys who take their foot off the gas whenever
they see a red light (or even a "stale green") somewhere before the

The "Sloth Slalom"21 Dec 2005 00:38 GMT2
Ran the Sloth Slalom course today. Staggered Sloths, each doing about

way through.

More Rude Drivers20 Dec 2005 03:37 GMT8
Well I had another jerk pull a "cool" stunt on me yesterday. I was waiting
at a light with two lanes of traffic turning left from one street to
another. I'm in the left most lane about three cars back. There is an uber
driver in BMW is in right most left turn lane behind a ...
Right Lane Impatience20 Dec 2005 03:02 GMT50
We all understand how an ideal KRETP-based world would work.  If there are 3

The Positive Side of Sloth19 Dec 2005 07:19 GMT29
I have to admit, Sloths aren't ALL bad.
I was exiting a freeway at a notoriously crowded off-ramp. The ramp
has two dedicated left turn lanes, one through traffic lane, and a
dedicated right turn lane. I wanted to turn left, but the left turn
