smart to keep Lt Gov out of speeding trouble?

[rfernatt]

Obviously, the Lt Gov hasn't seen a smart driven by a few of you guys...

SC gov's driver pulled for speeding

In February 2006, the Highway Patrol clocked Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer driving 101 mph but did not issue a ticket or warning. Saying he was driving himself home from a charity event at around midnight, Bauer apologized and said he didn't realize how fast he was going.

A few months earlier, Bauer went unticketed for driving between 77 and 78 in a 65 mph zone. A repentant Bauer took to walking from his home to his office, strode 10 miles to file to run for re-election and eventually bought a tiny Smart ForTwo, joking it would keep him out of trouble.

A speeding ticket is the LEAST of his problems

Oddly enough there is this old article........

Adrian Fenty’s Smart Car Got a Speeding Ticket

Yep, ol' Andre is just another out-of-control politician in my (almost ashamed to say it, lately) home state. They ended up giving him a driver, to keep him from behind the wheel. The article you pointed out was the first of two triple-digit,late night romps he was on, and now it costs the tax payers somewhere between 60k and 90k a year (salary only) to keep him "off the street".
I wouldn't want to waste a smart on him - give him a Yugo!
