never ever have I seen dumber people!!!!
man you need to chill...
at least give a heed of warning,
yelling and complaining won't get you far.


Is it so difficult to say, "hey guys, just becareful, i don't want to see any accidents arising from taking pictures."

I got to 87 once . . . once.

About two weeks after I got my smart I was all alone on I-495 around DC (this never, ever happens).
I decided to push it to the limit(er).
I got up to what the nice man on the motorcycle told me was 87mph.

That's when he flashed his very patriotic red/white/blue lights and asked me to pull over.

He asked lots of questions about the car. Pulled his bike beside and found that his bike was about 3" longer.

Laughed and told me to keep it at the posted speed limit (55) and rode away.

Such a nice, polite young man, but I hope I never see him again (in a professional capacity).

I now just keep up with the other vehicles on the road.

YES you can do 90 easily

Although people in SUV's and sports cars don't take too kindly to the little bugger passing them....

I got the cabrio I was in to an indicated 85 on 270 Saturday, without even trying. I'm just glad there weren't any officers around
