In my area, red light runners are the biggest sinners. When the light turns green, you best double check both left then right then left again before hitting the go pedal.

Sound like a great idea until you are in the passing lane of a two-way road and cannot complete the pass and get back into your lane in time because you can't exceed a certain speed...

Technically it is illegal to speed even to pass. Enforcement? Not so much.

From a very young age I recognized that the speed differential between cars, trucks and SUVs posed a serious problem. One screw-up and you will have an accident.

For some reason people now regularly break the speed limit while texting on their smart phones and listening to their Apple IPod through headphones. What could possibly go wrong?
