Speaking of Soylent Green, did you notice that the future depicted in
that movie has NO traffic problems?

Yes. Once the government sets them apart from everybody else by
allowing then to choicest parking spots, they start to think their
special privileges somehow extend to other aspects of driving. They
think that the rest of the world should cut them some slack because of
their "disability." And their mental handicaps prevent them from
realizing that such thinking is completely fallacious.

Never really thought about it, but if I ran things I'd harvest the bad
drivers first. =)

That's because you had absolutely no point what so ever to refute. You
just took my words and twisted them to your warped perspective.

And I'll second Dave's point: you are a troll. Have fun in the kill file
with the others.

I've found that the vast majority of handicap plates belong to people
that must have a mental handicap rather than physical one.

Most people with obvious physical handicaps appear to be driven by other
people and have a placard to put on the mirror so they can get a close in
parking spot while riding in someone else's car.

PLONK- The first refuge of the intellectually challenged when
confronted by an overwhelming argument.

I don't understand the plonk. Am I supposed to pretend I give a
****... or what? Should I dress in all black? If so, for how long?

I was behind one such Sloth with DV plates this morning. He was going
about 35 in a 45, though erratically slowing down and speeding up. It was a
tough choice whether to blast past him when I got a chance, because
the idiot behind me was tailgating and I didn't think I should reward
her by getting out of her way, but I figured she'd just tailgate the
Sloth, and they deserved each other.

I was caught behind a similar idiot last night, although he didnot have
a DP plate (maybe he had a placard for the mirror?) who was speeding
up/slowing down - anywhere from 5 under the limit to 30 under the limit
(posted 55 zone) - and drifting from the centerline to the edge line of
the lane back and forth (many times crossing those lines - and this was
on a 2 lane highway with heavy traffic). After about 5 miles of watching
this knothead weave back and forth (and nearly clip oncomming cars on a
couple of occaisions) I finally picked up the phone and reported him to
the county police as a possible DUI. Either he was impared or he was
driving a judy-esque POS that was not road worthy (the car appeared to
be a early to mid '90's Oldsmobile), but either way, he needed to be off
the road before he killed someone. Unfortunately, I did not get the
satisfaction of seeing him pulled over as I reached my turn to head
home. I hope the cops nailed him, though.

So you're saying it's okay to pass in a no-passing zone? Or you're
encouraging speeding? Or were you once again too stupid to read what
you were arguing?

Since you defend bad drivers so much, I'll have to assume you are one.
That's really scary considering the size of a school bus.

You're probably just like that MFFY I saw blocking an intersection
today with his big yellow bus that just wouldn't fit through on a green
light, or yellow light, or the first 40 seconds of the red light.
Nevermind the ambulance that was delayed a good 40 seconds till the
dymwit was able to move his precious bus out of the way.

Of course, you probably think that a school bus avoiding delay is more
important than gridlock laws, or just having some ****ing courtesy
towards emergency vehicles.
