When someone is going over 20-30mph over the speed limit, they need to take

Its just reality, that's all, better take notice.

********************
very well said. have to add, if EVERYONE got serious about using their
indicators, Javad's concept of passing on the right would be more valid. I
like people to move over for me, so I know they've actually seen me.
sounds like many of us have our 'reasons' for breaking the law in some form
or another, but we all need to be careful of 'holier than thou' attitude. I
love that only a couple of weeks ago there was a part time officer on the
list discussing the legality of road closed on public lands, now we're
talking about tossing change, 100+ MPH, road rage, etc.
so, can't hold my tongue; IF I were to drive faster than the speed limit,
these are things I might consider important; be responsible for your
actions, be courteous to others, if I were to speed, then I'm in the wrong
when faced with someone who is obeying the law. use indicators, use your
brain. pay attention to your limits and your cars. cops are the good guys.
(just wish they catch the people that stole my stereo, smashed my mirrors,
ran the red and hit the child down the street, etc. rather than spend so
much catching those driving a few over. speed kills, stupidity pulls the
trigger. driving is a privilege, anywhere in the world. make driving tests
harder, and more often. include a serious skill test.
German cars are such a pleasure to drive, I think I'm going to sell all
mine and bike to work. get rid of some of this fat. become a vegetarian,
sell flowers, and die in the street from someone running a red...
