Holiday reminder to stay safe on the roads

Please don't drink and drive

BMW Efficient Dynamics Concept Car

 I want one

They are using this car in a commercial and just had to look it up and I really want one.

Why is everyone in such a hurry?

I may be imagining things but as years go by, it seems like eveybody on the road is in more and more of a hurry to get somewhere all the time.

Some may have a reason to be in a hurry, maybe they are late for work, there could be a medical emergency or maybe they just really really have to pee.

 Whatever the reason, don't let your situation effect the safety of others on the road

Make sure your following distance is sufficient (Two seconds between vehicles as a minimum)

 Don't let your thoughts or anything else in your vehicle distract you from the dangers of the road

 

Everyone wants to get home safe after all.

Blow up doll in the HOV Lanes

Just a few hours after making the previous post about abuse with the new Burlington HOV lanes, I heard a story on the radio I found quite comical.

Below is coverage on ABC Channel 7.

It was about a driver in Burlington busted for using a blow-up doll as a passenger in the High Occupancy Vehicle lanes (HOV).

Ironically, I was only a few miles away from where he was getting a ticket while I was writing a post about HOV lane abuse.

I was prompted to make this post after noticing that it became INTERNATIONAL NEWS when I saw CNN's Headline News playing the story all day Saturday.

The story was also carried on other news networks, in Print, TV, Radio and Internet Sites.
