There is a difference between driving drunk, running red lights and driving fast. The first two are dangerous.

^ i agree, but go tell that to a politician :roll: who's most likely as dumb as 90% of people who elected him (its a fact that 9 out of 10 people are idiots

).. its all about overkill and exaggerating everything that has to do with roads and cars these days..
I can't even begin to imagine how lame its gonna be in 20, 30 years time.. kids in school cant do shit at recess but sit down with helmets on, knee pads and what not..
men would be forced to pee only in urinals who where approved by feminists or whatever, people will drive around in car running on cow farts or whatever, and where ever you'll drive to, you'll do it going 20mph, not cause there are 9 billion people on the roads, but not cause a car can't go any fast on cow farts (you could get up to maybe even the exciting side of 25!) not cause the law says you cant (cause who ever gave a damn about speed limits, other then the swiss

cause of the police that is..

) but cause you'll be scared running over a little girl who crossed the street cause she didn't hear your cow fart car coming cause it doesn't make any noise!

:shock:

damn.. we better get it together :shock:

The hypocrisy of it all. Here is an article about all the celebs driving their Prius cars to save the world.

http://www.tmz.com/2006/10/18/celebs...but-guzzle-gas

They don't mention Al (global warming) Gore who travels to all his "save the planet" speeches in a convoy of SUV's and limos.

When we can't have the cars we want our "leaders" still will.

Erez · 10-24-2006, 10:53 PM

its all just a big fat fucking joke.. and we are (car guys) the once that are gonna get fucked by this stupid joke, who the hell made "green" trendy?!
fucking celebs and politicians... and the 9 out of 10 people that actually believe the crap that comes out of their mouths..
I have no prob with people who wanna drive and think that they're way is green and what ever.. (and the Prius is NOT "green" its CRAP) when fuel cells technology will be ready or whatever, you know what, I even encourage it.. people who don't like cars, and just drive to get from A to B, that would be perfect, but don't force it on people don't punish us for it, just encourage use of the new tech, just like with safety features..
but wait! how could they make money that way?! hu.. :fist:
Gore is a fucking joke, I know Americans have a history of been star stroke, (and come on.. nothing good came out of it..) and if the day comes that a US president will be elected on bases of green issues.. cause people cant see pass this bullcrap

than fuck..

Global warming tax on Britons who fly for "holiday"

http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23371971-details/Foreign+Secretary+calls+for+'global+warming'+tax+o n+holidaymakers/article.do

No doubt excludes celebs in private jets or government officals on "holiday". In 200 years we might learn if this accomplished anything besides being a new tax.

In November, Americans will again pick which side the fence we are on. We will know then.

TopGearNL · 10-25-2006, 04:33 PM

Stupid that they want to do that, hardly anyone in the Outback so why?

pagani · 10-31-2006, 03:50 PM

That is just plain stupid.
I hate the word trendy.

:roll:

Well the NT has the highest proportional number of road deaths. However, that is probably not linked to speed. It is most probably linked to the fact that there just happens to be a lot of bad/stupid drivers living there. Even without speed, stupid people will hurt themselves.
