Why don't you libs demand 1. lower speed limits 2. a ban on felons driving cars 3. mandatory prison time for DUIs

....Please do get together and go ahead with your boycott of BP stations.

jeez... these idiots really are trying to kill themselves. Leaving Metro station, I come to a four way stop in a residential neighborhood. I stop, look left, right, left, proceed. I'm just entering the intersection when this idiot roadie, who was apparently hugging the curb on the street...

And thousands are injured and billions of $ lost in medical bills and lost time and property damage. But the idiot american doesn't give two ****s. OTOH - every gun death is a national scandal.

Why do car commercials appeal to the most primitive and nonsensical human desires? Case in point is the VW commercial with the idiot getting excited about overtaking a car on a curve. I would think only a mentally challenged person would derive any pleasure from such a commercial. So what's going...

Don't let the speeding pedalphiles on our highways kill or maim anyone in your family. Get in that left lane, take it up to exactly the speed limit and stay there. Force the killer speeders to obey the law and protect your children at the same time.

I've read that this it the thing that infuriates drivers the most, and I agree! Few things **** me off more than seeing some jackass on my bumper when I'm driving over the speed limit myself (and I'm not talking about driving in the fast lane of the interstate, as I believe in slower traffic...

I wanted to get some opinions about my behavior. I recently moved into a house (I'm house-sitting for a few years) and I have never had my own driveway before this move. I find myself always backing into the driveway now when I park, so when it's time for me to go anywhere, I can pull out forward,...

Got rid of the gas guzzler and bought a 4-cylinder Toyota Camry. Since my goal is good gas mileage, I drive very conservatively; i.e. no jackrabbit starts/stops, etc. When I drive on the interstate highways (Chicago area) I do the following: 1) Steady (but not excessive) acceleration throughout...

The KTLA Morning News is reporting on a man who pulled a Pinky Tuscadero last night. An alarm was falsing in a car parked outside of his apartment complex, so he came out with a gun and shot it up. So much for the blissful ignorants who claim that car alarms never go off falsely and disturb people.

I decided to buy a 2002 VW Jetta TDI for fuel economy on my long trips. It seemed to have good reviews (except from the Car Talk Guys) and in real-life better gas mileage than the Prius and I though more reliable technology. At about 65000 miles there were only a series (5 or more) check...

....that if I flash my headlights at a car trying to make a left turn, that would mean "go ahead, feel free to cut me off" and not "warning! caution! don't do it! watch out!"? Ivan
