How many times do you get to put the spurs to such a car when you are following a rusty, smoking pickup, with a trailer hauling 6 weed whackers, 4 leaf blowers and two lawn mowers??

The finest Ferrari is still limited to about 3 MPH in the afternoon rush hour. It's just silly to burn money on high performance vehicles when operating a legally posted speed limits on public roads.

When I lived in Chula Vista, there was a 4th of July fireworks show occurring at Southwestern College. The traffic was backed up all the way down Telegraph Canyon Rd to my house at Nolan Way and L St. I pulled out my old 3 speed bicycle and rolled past the jam, so I didn't miss the show. Same on the way back. A similar approach worked from my home in Mira Mesa when the Miramar Air Show weekend activities jammed the roads.
