The third time they are expelled from office.
Ummmmm . . . . . . . not to be indelicate but would that be similar to the type of action taken immediately prior to flushing??

I know that some of the satellite navigation devices alert you to speed traps. This is definitely the wave of the future. I, for one, have heard about what products like the tomtom 510 and 910 can do, and it is awesome. All cars will have that level of technology soon enough.
You have to always be one step ahead.

As a rider, I can tell you that the worst of the speeding and aggressive are on four wheels and typically have a cell phone stuck to their face.
I did emphasize noisy, that's the only thing that bugs me about bikes, most of them are so inconsiderate to everyone else's ears. And by the way, the other day I say a biker with a cell phone to his ear.

I hope you have your best asbestos suit on. You're gonna need it.
What does that mean? Sorry if it offends you because I don't like noisy bikes that invade my ear space, I think they are very inconsiderate to purposely make they loud.

So are bikes only noisy when they go over the speed limit?

That's why your neck can rotate, your eyes can close, you have fingers to stick in your ears, and are free to stay your can at the house!
I have been scaring old people, making babies cry, and driving control freaks like you even more nuts than you already are in the name of FREEDOM. It's not just for the fun of antisocial behavior.
Get yourself out of the left lane, and SHUT UP!

No, they are only noisy when they take the guts out of the mufflers to make them that way so they can be cool and loud.

And you’re a motorcycle expert, too, are you? I like to ride past the homes of people like you just to set off their car alarms.

Don’t forget that the automakers are going to electric steering, too. Total drive-by-wire, with NO physical connection between the steering wheel and the steering axle. Scares the h**l outta me.
