Indeed. As well as can be expected.
"I never dreamed an impact at that speed could do so much damage!"
I saw a fatal accident in Hawaii years ago that was quite similar.
"He thought for a minute and says "OH YES! Now I remember!"
It's drunk drivers like that who give the rest of us a bad name.
LOL!!!
I need to know who your agent is. You can hardly beat 50 a year:')
MANTECA BUMP! (Means "Lard" in spanish!)
In June we were stopped by a road block in a remote part of BC Canada and asked for license and proof of insurance. In Switzerland they will come to your house and take your plates if your insurance lapses. Our politians are not trying to protect our citizens or contol insurance costs. They are protecting a privileged group of law breakers for a few votes.
It is time we voted these people out and stopped buying news and views from people who support them.
You noticed that too, huh?
I think it's all about money. I like the idea of making insurance voluntary. If you are in an accident you insurance company pays for your damages regardless of fault. If you don't have insurance then you are out of luck. It would eliminate no coverage from un-insured drivers and fraud. They would be covering the car and not the drivers.
They're driving without licences, and one of the few more things we can do is huge numbers of road-checks, under the guise of going after "nasty drunk-drivers who threaten children and small animals".
We'll confiscate their vehicles, arrest them, get them fired....
And those to come will hear of this, and they won't come.
Of course, the ACLU will have a complete tizzy.
I saw a 16 yr old driver slam on the brakes while in the center of the intersection when the light turned yellow. She said she was scared. Not a pretty sight.
What I find strange is every yellow light has different lengths. So it's hard to know when you have a fast yellow light upon you. I think the graphic above is reasonable guidance. Good luck with driving, God knows we all need it.
