Car magazine [was: the i5 returns]



While reading Car magazine this past weekend, I was surprised to hear my local 
Sheriff mentioned.  Maricopa County has the "toughest sheriff", and they were 
commenting on the use of chain gangs and handling of reckless driving 
offenders.

I just thought it was ironic to read about my local Arizona sheriff in a UK 
mag.
