I propose a law:
Anybody can get speed bumps installed anywhere they want, but drivers are required to honk their horns when they hit them. The precious children would be more likely to notice a...
I'm flabbergasted. Every school bus I've seen has a flip-out stop sign that looks exactly like every other stop sign in the country. Someone who doesn't understand that doesn't need their license...
That's what I'm kind of confused about... My understanding is that conventional helicopters benefit from ground effect up to a height of about 1/2 their span of their rotors. The rotors on this thing...
... exhaust vapor.
Had a pretty basic encounter this morning, PSP trying to hide behind a bridge, but apparently he didn't realize it was so cold that his exhaust was visible and drifting toward...

*banghead* I don't even know where to begin... except to say that anyone who actually believes that will, 99% of the time, either piss people off by driving too slow, or eventually have a collision...
Well, now that I'm searching on it, yes, I do have them confused. It is Geico that has the radar detector clause and that gives laser guns to police departments. Google is a wonderful thing![/QUOTE]...
I'm pretty sure you have Progressive confused with Geico?
You know what's funny... literally 15 minutes ago, I was out on some deserted country road braking to a stop from different speeds. Deer season is coming up and I think it's important to practice. I...
Netwizz, do you live in a place where there are Amish? I do, so I have a little experience driving around them. There are good reasons for them to need warnings.
Consider where the Amish are...
BMW, Audi, Mercedes. Where are all three of them based?
Germany.
What country is home to the one famous "Autobahn," the only network of public highways in the world with no absolute maximum...
Is this about small cars in general or just Hondas? I'm genuinely curious, because you've been in law enforcement longer than I've been alive. Every manufacturer I can think of has produced small...
Congratulations on your purchase. An x50 should serve you well. Also, your intuition is right; you are half naked with just a CB. I consider both a CB and a detector to be essential for serious...
X is dead; I've had it disabled with confidence for about four years with no problems and I haven't seen anyone report it being used anywhere in the state. There have been reports of some Ka, but...
Your "rabbits" are the truckers on the CB and blind faith, basically. It's been my experience that once you hit 85 and up you're pretty much on your own.
If you do use a generic magnet mount base, make sure it's good quality and the bottom is completely covered by heavy vinyl and there are no exposed sharp edges. I tried using a cheap one from the...
I'm looking at a fiberglass antenna and my Wilson 1000 magnet base right next to each other... they both have male threads, and the antenna's threads are much smaller. I'm not sure what you'd see if...
I'm pretty sure a fiberglass antenna wouldn't even fit in the Wilson 1000 base. You can buy magnetic bases with the 3/8" threads that most fiberglass antennas use, but I don't think it's a great...
Well, making left turns is pretty unpleasant and inefficient, so I have to give them credit for trying something to minimize the problem. However, I think they're going to need many more signs...
LED light bars are an abomination. At night, I can't see anything around or in front of them except glare until I'm almost the whole way past the cruiser.
Now that's just silly. Make it the law either statewide or nowhere.
I seriously object to that reasoning. If that's true, then why not just have random roadblocks everywhere to search for kidnappers? Why only target people who are speeding? Are kidnappers incapable...
You know, I'm sorry the kids lost their kitty, but I have a general rule: for anything that doesn't threaten my car, life or freedom, I'm not going to take extreme measures to avoid it. I'll gladly...
If it were me I'd just take a telephone cord, cut off the plugs and some very short lengths of the original cord, then solder some beefier wires in between. Caveats: I've never actually done this and...
