Got a ticket... Thoughts?09 Dec 2005 09:17 GMT64

headlight was out, in fact I intentionally unplugged that headlight. The
problem I had was that my headlight switch decided to take a crap on me. In

Today I was stuck behind a brand new Mercedes driving strangely slow

Happy Anniversary!08 Dec 2005 02:04 GMT1
Motorists across the nation can celebrate the Tenth Anniversary of the
repeal of the National Maximum Speed Limit (NMSL) by driving at safe,
legal speeds well above 55 mph. National legislation repealing the
decades-old NMSL was signed into law on December 8, 1995.
Pedalphile doing 120 mph in CITY - charged with murder08 Dec 2005 00:58 GMT45
This is good to see. Extreme speeders who kill should always be
charged with murder. Hell with that "accident"  crap we get from the
criminal coddlers every time something like this happens.

Root cause idiotcy, solution: lower speed limit07 Dec 2005 04:08 GMT64
Just heard on WLS AM news, the speed limit for the trains where people
stopped their cars on the tracks will be reduced from 70mph to 30mph.
Once again, the forced solution to idiotcy is lower speeds. However this
race to the bottom won't be over until every vehicle of every kind ...
