While the South Australian government is preaching the "Speed Kills" mantra like so many governments around the world, I was surprised to see that they're also trying to quash inattentive driving. Some of you may be interested to see these advertisements:

| Double Dose of MFFY | 24 Mar 2006 06:41 GMT | 22 |
Some pics from my trip over the weekend. And you thought the only way to pull up to a gas pump was to drive up alongside. Not sure why this MFFY felt the need to back up perpendicular to the row of pumps, but he certainly didn't mind the

| Does anyone understand this Cadillac TV commercial? | 24 Mar 2006 03:21 GMT | 5 |
There's a Cadillac TV commercial where two guys are parking their respective cars in a parking garage. One guy starts slowly backing into a space labeled "CEO", and a second guy slides his car into the adjacent (?) space. Then

So I'm driving back from Tucson westbound on I-8. I'm passing through the Laguna Mountains when I spot stopped traffic ahead. Thinking another Coyote rolled his pickup truck full of wetbacks all over the road, I duck off at Buckman Springs Road and take Old US 80. As I

| TOLERABLE PETRO PRICES | 22 Mar 2006 21:12 GMT | 14 |
As a democratic country, where the government seems to care about its people, Venezuela's petro (gasoline) price is about 95% lower that of Australia and the US. As the fuel prices climb, our groceries also get jacked up as well. The question is how high would the fuel cost have to

| False Advertising | 22 Mar 2006 14:22 GMT | 1 |
Good thing the truth-in-advertising laws don't apply to license plates. Her vanity plate read a variation of the phrase "Fly Girl," but in reality she was a SLOTH GIRL. Amazingly enough, she was driving a BMW sedan on the same stretch of road as the other BMW from a couple

| So I get pulled over twice in one day | 22 Mar 2006 03:18 GMT | 39 |
For using selective yellow HID bulbs in my headlamps. I actually got these bulbs back in early January and have had no problems (till today). I wasn't cited in either case (probably because they're not explicitly illegal in VA).

I haven't been to Tucson for about a year now. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I-10 has been widened to six lanes all the way to Tangerine Road in Marana - and it really makes a huge difference - at least on a Saturday afternoon. Now if they would only widen it the

| Do any cars come with an AT drain plug.? | 21 Mar 2006 16:39 GMT | 10 |
None of my cars have ever had one. I guess the idea is you don't need to change the fluid that ofter and if they put a plug in, it may leak. But by forcing people to pull the pan to drain the fluid - well... that is even more likely to cause a leak if you don't get the gasket lined

#1 The South is slow. In what way? The motorists in the suburbs of Charleston South Carolina drive faster than most angelinos or Orange Countonians in CA!!! They don't even talk slow as some people claim. Its only that sometimes the
