No, but it would provide an opportunity for anyone with a flatbed to
make money on scrap. The distraction would likely increase accidents
in the short run.

Sure; the smokers in the hospitals proudly point to their pack and say
"Look, that's me!".

Be a lot simpler and cheaper and more effective to just put up signs
saying "speeders and drunk drivers are murderers."

Yeah, How about a billboard with pictures of the "alleged" offender, and
the results of his/her actions.. with the appropriate caption, of course.

Wouldn't have mattered if hitty had one. He took his orders from the
same organization that roosevelt did and bush does today.

I know what you mean, dood. I did 5 years in the can myself for beating
the crap out of a half-dozen faggot gun loonies i caught raping a

Dude, Where's The Most Important Quote? (see below)

--
"> Have you ever driven a car faster than the legal speed limit?

Yes, but never deliberately. In fact i got a speeding ticket about 5
years ago for doing 41 in a 25. I just about kicked the cops teeth in
cause i was sure he was lying. No way the SL on this wide open
stretch could be 25, i thought."

They have an effect on the revenue of companies like this:

That's about it.

I like the one that says "My Gran smokes 40 a day and she's 93"
