In a previous posting, "truckinsp" <truckinsp@ nowhere.com> had
the audacity to say: :Clones works......I see a lot of people - mostly guys but more women :lately - who think that because they have horsepower they don't need :brains......all of them have the same inflated belief in their driving :ability ... all of them think everyone else is a "sloth".....all of them :think that citations are just to generate revenue......all of them think :they know more than any experts....... In general, the true experts - namely qualified engineers INDEPENDENT of political interference - aren't able to get involved when it comes to establishing/maintaining traffic law. Politicians are *not* experts, except perhaps at maximizing revenue. Hence we see the coming and going of photo RaDAR programs, etc. Politicians are apt to pursue programs that generate the most revenue without overstepping the mark of political unpopularity (the point at which the government would get overthrown). :all of them think driving on :the highways is a game between them and the cops..... You can blame the focus on SPEED enforcement for that. :all of them have the emotional age of 14..... You have little faith in your fellow motorist. Lowest common denominator thinking got us where we are today. And if you build a rubber padded world, you just get better idiots.

IE said the web page couldn't be displayed. I have had codec problems with certain kinds of video files before, but will only try to fix them when my machine is reformatted (spyware and stuff needs to be eliminated). :> Of :> course, if there's much in the way of passing on the right in :> it, it might be better that I don't see it. :} : :Only the last part of the video segment. The first part is almost erfect with regards to KRETP and passing only on the left. Then again, :the last part of the video segment took place on a road with more than 2 :lanes per side... This would be interesting to watch I think. With the right video equipment mounted to the top of the seats or to the dash, "Muggins" could film himself driving fast on a rural highway on a clear day too, but he doesn't have the equipment right now. -- E.R. aka SJG aka Ricardo present location: vancouver bc canada |

Maybe you didn't read what I wrote: "I'm not saying that's what happened, I'm saying it proves nothing." Don't automatically assume that you're being dissed. You weren't. I'm only pointing out that such evidence can easily be faked. I didn't say you faked it; in fact, I specifically said I wasn't saying that. -- Bill Funk Change "g" to "a" |
