"Serve and Protect" has become "Observe and Collect." How soon before it becomes "Stand and Deliver"?

There I was taking my family shopping, traveling on the interstate in a 65MPH zone, doing about 5 over on cruise. At some point I noticed a car that was probably doing 65 to 68, just slightly slower. At the rate I was approaching, I was able to observe him occasionally pass a few vehicles. Well,...

What the hell kind of bull**** is this? When someone is tested and deemed worthy of being issued a driver's license, it should come with full privileges and responsibilities. Otherwise, don't issue the goddam thing. Besides, the only way that new drivers are going to accumulate driving experience...

Hello, I'll be buying a car in another province in Canada and driving it back through the U.S. with a temporary registration permit. This means that the car will not have any plates in place and will only have a temporary paper permit placed on the front window. To me, this seems somewhat risky...

Which car is the better design? Which one as better roadholding/handling? Which one is more durable over the other? I know that the cobalt chassis is newer in many years to the Focus but the Focus happens to be European tuned inspired. I would like to find out which one is the better choice and...

I must be crazy, but hear this out: Whenever I'm the lead car in the left-turn-only lane(Governed by a 4-element traffic light: red, caution, green, left arrow) the light almost ALWAYS goes to straight green(no arrow). I have to wait for the opposite traffic to clear, almost to the end of the...

LOL. I have had much the same thought, at times. The guy you passed ends up next to you at a light, with a smug look. I know that down the road I'll be way ahead of him, without ever exceeding the speed limit, but he doesn't realize that. Some of these fools think that they're better than those...

Stop cross-posting this racists, unrelated bull****.

I have been away from the United States for a number of years and when I returned I found many more utility type vehicles on the road. This includes SUV, station wagons and minivans. Sport Utility Vehicles as the most popular of these utility vehicles. It looks to me that the SUV has become the...
