A keen eye saves a life by Sam O'Nella
I remember becoming rather hypersensitive to other drivers after taking a trip over someone's trunk when they pulled out in front of me while I was riding my motorcycle. I tend to look down side streets as I approach intersections, assuming someone will plow through the intersection. Last year I...

Speeding Ticket Defense vs. pacing by [email protected]
A common defense against pacing I found is to challenge patrol car's speedometer's calibration. What kind of inaccuracy are we talking about here (i.e. in maybe 1-2mph, or up to 10mph)? And what is the relationship between tire pressure, wear and tear vs. the speedometer's calibration? Where can...

Misreperesention of relative stopping distances of cars and trucks in Ny Driver's Manual by Jack Brown
Apparently the New York Department of Motor Vehicles does not know how to graph. Look at this graph from the drivers manual below. The Stopping distance for a car is 193 ft but it is plotted as about 110 ft. Is this a stupid mistake or an attempt to scare drivers into being afraid of...

accident situation - car slams on breaks to complete stop in 55mph zone by Tim923
If a car slams on the breaks in a 55mph zone unexpectedly to a complete stop (as quickly as possible, he missed his turn perhaps), how much reaction time does the car behind need to avoid collision. Would it be fair for the car hitting the stopping car to get a ticket for tailgating? My accident...

The Justic system, the courts by [email protected]
Who here thinks our Justic system is fair and "just"? Who here doesn't agree? For example from what I have observed. Why would the family cour hearing use no Jury? All I saw was a Judge "partialness questionable", Defendant, Prosecutor, no visitors (but myslef) lawyers (liars), a social service...

GE Nighthawk Headlight Bulbs by uniseriate
Hello All, I was wondering if anyone has heard anything about GE's new Nighthawk headlight bulb range. I saw them at the local Wal-mart and was wondering about their performance. I looked at the bulb and verified that there is no blue filter like on the Sylvania Silverstar bulbs. However, the...

Another reason not to run red lights by Olaf Gustafson
I saw what looked like it may have been a car at some point that had been t-boned by an 18-wheeler this morning. Someone ran a red light. I'm guessing it wasn't the trucker, although I could be wrong about that.

"Sobriety Checkpoints" by Bob Lutz
As my fellow Coloradoans are aware, they just wrapped up their holiday weekend "The Heat is On" campaign. This may have been answered elsewhere, if so, point me in the right direction. How exactly does the state get away with stopping motorists at a 'checkpoint'? Seems to me they have to have...

bad crosswalk experience by Tim923
It seems that cars in my new town don't look out for pedestrians as much as in my old town. Does this vary from state to state?

So what should be the penalty for speeding? by Laura Bush murdered her boy friend
Considering that these terrorists kill and maim innocent americans every day on the highways, i think anyone caught doing 20 mph or more over the limit should do ten years in the can and never be allowed to drive again. LETS STOP BEING CRIMINAL CODDLERS.
