General Motors hires more "activists" to nullify DUI checkpoints by
Car Crashes Mean Car Sales - GM loves highway criminals
As we all know, car crashes mean car sales and GM is fighting to get
drunk driving legalized and common. Their present ploy is to claim you
have some sort of "right" to drive drunk and kill others and only
nanny-staters oppose drunk driving.

Chains by
The Real Bev[_5_]
In theory my tires take Laclede 1038 (cable, s-type), but they're too
long. The instructions say not to use those O-ring chain tighteners, but
what do they know? Have any of you actually used such a tightener with
cable chains?

Cheers, Bev

Why do motorcyclists ride in formation? by
223rem
instead of riding in single file down the middle of the lane?
You've seen them--especially Harleys: the first rides close to
the right boundary of the lane, the next one close to the left
boundary, and they continue alternating like that. Some even
ride abreast.
How can it be safe for them to ride...

Potholes as Traffic Control Devices by
Johann Fitzgerald
Potholes only damage cars if you hit them if you're going fast. If you
cross them at 5 mph they do nothing. Besides, they help drainage out,
too.

The increasing stress of driving by
Alexander Rogge
I'm very frustrated by the number of driving days that require the use
of rapid deceleration, evasive action, and rapid acceleration to avoid a
secondary incident. I've had more than 100 incidents within the past
month, and I've noticed that it has taken my driving to the border of
reasonable and...

Some interesting reading by
Paul.

The short of it, this reporter decided to give driving at the speed limit
a try for a week with some interesting results. I did disagree with a
couple of things he had to say, namely when he would cruise in the middle
lane for no apparent reason and his confronting...

does it sounds like a lie? by
Mark
We have 3 cars in our auto insurance policy.
My 20 year old daughter has a newest car out of all 3.
So basically she is driving the most expensive car.
I have asked my insurance agent:
What if I will be driving her $20,000 dollars car and she will drive my
old Toyota truck?
Will insurance be...

Idiot! by
Harry K
News item on local tv had a short about the high gas prices.
Interviewed a lady complaining that she had just put $78 worth of gas
in her vehicle. Yup, an SUV. At first I figured she might have some
reason for the complaint until she identified it as a 2005 Excursion.
That means she had to have...

Should we call them LLDs instead of LLBs by
Laura Bush murdered her boy friend
For Left Lane Drivers. Left lane blockers sounds so negative. LLDs
are wonderful people who save lives by slowing down the deadly speeders.

Anti-photo plate cover by
Bitu
I am afraid the police are finally fooled; they won't be able to detect
the photoblocker spray with their naked eyes and yet you can get away
from these stupid tickets. I don't think anybody in their conscience
mind will agree to these speed cameras or red light cameras. This is
another way of...

hatchbacks by
Magnulus
Why do so few cars in the US have hatchbacks? I just think the typical
sedan is retarded looking and the trunk is a waste of space- especially in a
smaller car. Unfortunately, many automakers and dealers in the US don't
give a choice.
I heard it's because some people think a hatchback is "not...

How do you insure a 16 year old driver? by
[email protected]
What risks does one take when they get insurance to cover anyone
driving the vehicle and a 16 year old household member wrecks the car?
I know you should add the driver to the policy and pay out the ass but
are you required to to be covered in case of an accident?

7 months after accident the guy says he is hurt by
The Office Jet
I got in a small accident last August. At a stop light, the guy in
front of me pulled out right into traffic. He then, for no apparent
reason, slammed on his brakes. I had already turned, and not expecting
him to for no reason stop, rear ended him. I almost avoided contact by
swerving, but I...
