As a street bike rider, I'm always extremely aware of th' dangers
looming in traffic. When th' family is in th' cage, it's pretty much
a whisper or silence. I hate distractions. I take driving very
serious and sure as hell wish more people would do so as well.


I always thought that if I were to open an insurance agency,
I would only sell car insurance to motorbike riders. :^)


Interesting concept Jim. Makes me wonder how much lower those
customers annual rates could go. You'd likely have yerself a gold
mine.

My solution is to have triple edged, razor sharp, barbed, serrated
daggers coming out of th' steering wheel, pointed at th' drivers
heart. They screw up, hook a tow truck up to whatever's left and haul
it, carcass and all, to th' crusher.

No seat belt laws, no cell phone laws, no speeding enforcement, just
pure Darwinism should do 'er.


Yep. Get rid of the airbags, ABS, etc.


Hell, ya wouldn't even need to issue drivers licenses. Wouldn't take
very long 'til Darwin got th' majority of 'em and traffic jams became
a distant memory.

That lady who went for a dunking now understands what it's like
to screw up. The "ohnosec" which is the instant between when
you realize you screwed up, and the moment between when you realize
the natural consequences of your actions are *inevitable*.


There's prolly a gubmint study done that found th' "ohnosec" to be th'
exact time that feces started filling ones undergarments.

All I can do is hope she actually learned something from her ohnosec
experience... but I have my doubts.
