Speeding

Views on speeding aside, and on people pulling out in front of you as well, it makes a good point.

Yup. I'm far more conscious of speed, and aholes on the road, now that I have kids.

For people of a certain age, the thread topic is the punch line to the question, " What does a yellow light mean?"

Well, I remember a scene from a science fiction movie of about 40 years ago. The story was about H.G. Wells coming to seventies San Francisco in his time machine.

He rides with a lady in a car for the first time. After analyzing the controls, the traffic lights and so forth, he summarized. In his summary of the controls and indicators he summarized what the traffic lights meant; he indicated that the green meant go, the red meant stop and the yellow meant speed up.

I think that's the way most city drivers view it.

Ok, but did y'all watch the video? It's not really a traffic light type thing...

Yes, I watched it and it made a very good point. These are the type messages that should be plastered all over in front of student drivers and run as public announcements on the idiot box.

Good video.

IMO it’s slightly more likely that people will drive more safely than it is that school shootings will stop. After all, some actually do care about their cars.

Wonder how much debate there was about the cars selected.
