Hi, I have a very simple question on which I would appreciate some feedback. I'm a passenger in a rental car being driven by a friend. My friend is going at least 60 mph in the fast lane for a period of roughly 5 minutes with a half a car length between our car and the car in front of him. We are not in a rush or an emergency. Even though I know my...

I'm NOT posting this to any of the rec.bicycles groups because I know that this would be flamebait over there because nobody believes me when I say how much riders suck here. Last night, coming home from work, I saw an older gentleman riding a bicycle (metallic blue road frame) in a 100% legal and courteous manner. He was riding toward the shoulder...

I exited the freeway this morning at a T-intersection in the middle of a construction zone (southbound I-405 at the Culver Blvd exit; the exit is a T-intersection at Sawtelle Blvd - Culver Blvd itself is a short block to the left from the end of the offramp). Due to the ongoing construction, the ramp has only one lane open. As I approach the end of the...

...Does not constitute an emergency on my part - EVEN if you're a cop! I'm in the rightmost of two dedicated left turn lanes, about the 4th car in line. In the left turn lane to my left and one carlength ahead is a CHP Crown Vic. The light turns green. The line of cars ahead of me turns into the rightmost lane of the cross street. I follow suit, because...

http :// phoenixnewtimes,com /2008-05-29/news/heather-squires-was-arrested-for-dui-without-drinking-a-drop-of-alcohol This is good timing, as there was a thread a couple of weeks back that featured a bunch of morons on here praising a new policy that would confiscate (steal) vehicles from DUI offenders in some jurisdiction. Maybe the possibility of being arrested...

As in many a thread we are told if we don't like speed limits or whatever to change things... to get elected and change things... also one of the tin-foil-hat things I've been accused of is the problem of how election law blocks parties besides the Ds and Rs.
