I have a series of numbers at the bottom of my license: 11/08/2006 503

I am guessing that the first is the date of renewal; the others I have
no clue about.

I'm watching the evening news here in the LA basin, and EVERY freeway

I am planning shortly to take route 81 south from Montreal, Canada and
then 95S to the promised land "Florida". I want to drive about 500
miles a day and have a room reserved at motels  at approx 500 mile
intervals.

It's just an early and robust snow fall, we've had.  Nothing to really write home about if you have proper tires on.  Yet people are talking (and driving) like it's a natural disaster!  How does traffic moving down a section of fraser highway today at 20 MPH where the road has ...

Never a MFFYCam around when you need one. :)
Picture a six-lane road (three in each direction). Posted speed limit:
50 MPH. The road is coming away from a shopping mall on Thanksgiving
weekend, so there's a fair amount of traffic. The left lane and the
