Why is it that people who have fog lights on their cars use them when it is
not foggy?
It looks like the oncoming driver has his brights on.  I've tried mine, and
find the area they illuminate right in front of the car to be annoying.  I

Is this type of interchange:

I was sitting at a traffic light this morning which was acting VERY
strangely. The cross traffic's cycle kept repeating (i.e. as soon as
the light would go red it would immediately turn green again and begin
another cycle, with no intervening cycle for traffic going in my

Here we have a case where some doddering old fool, who was clearly
driving past his expiration date, took himself out without harming any
innocent bystanders. The only way this could have turned out any
better would have been if the geezer had acknowledged his failing

Cop logic never ceases to astound me. "The Firebird's speed and
failure to stop [...] caused the collision." So I guess if he had
blown through the stop sign but not exceeded the posted speed limit
the crash would not have occurred?

Here's a poll for you.
Situation: you are driving down a 55-posted highway (true of 2-lane
roads in Iowa and most of Missouri|).  You top a hill and see a patrol
car about 1/2 mile out, parked off the road.  You glance at the

This time they hit a semi and killed themselves but they could just as
easily have crashed into a car and wiped out a family. Get these goddam
illegals out of america.

This seems to be more and more common.  30 years ago this would have
been an accident. 10 years ago, manslaughter.

How did you arrive at your conclusion?
Whom, among your passengers, agree with your assessment?
How many miles have you operated at 100mph(+)?
How much experience (in miles) do you have exploring the limits of

I'm making my way through my hour commute home from work and the gym Thursday
night when I suddenly look around and realize I've been surrounded by mini-vans.
I must say it was quite an unsettling realization.
To begin with, mini-van sales have dipped way down ever since the arrival ...

I did some surveying around the new I-210 corridor and dying CA 30 to see
what's changed. The alignment is now all the way out to I-215 and just needs
some ramp and rail work, near as I can tell. All the CA 30 signs west of I-215
are gone on Highland Ave, although the postmiles are ...

This one only works with the pictures. Imagine someone took the styling
of a 1975 ford country squire wagon and applied it to a Hummer H3.

They're going after the second hand smoke angle but the real problem
with smoking drivers is the same as the   problem with drivers on cell
phones or playing with the radio or eating food.  Holding a burning
stick in your hand while driving increases your chances of losing

It would seem like a no-brainer.  If someone is killed on the freeway
by some nut doing say 85 mph, you'd think the victim's family would sue
the manufacturer for making a car DESIGNED to break the law. Should be
easy for the family to win.  And yet i've never heard of any such
