        Yeah, I mean, how are you supposed to maintain a safe stopping
distance when their poxy little cars won't even do your chosen speed,
eh? Don't they know your reaction time is limited?

        Not just you, alas.

        Sorry, that might be a little harsh. But you're making me glad I
don't drive. I suspect this is a joke but I've lost too many friends
in RTAs to find it that funny. Yours,
                                      Jon

the road at least)
