hmm personally I just got back from driving down Portland's I5 at about 98mph. and you know what, it was an empty freeway, if I made a booboo it was just me involved. Now would I drive at 100mph when others(either in my car )or others, say an SUV full of Soccer kiddies?were in danger? No.
just the same as I and most responsible gun owners would not shoot unless we are sure of our backstop.
so back on your "meep-meep" scooter
