Is it fair to lose your car for drinking and driving - assuming you don't hit anyone else? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrewwhyte 1 #52 March 26, 2008 It does seem a bit strange that someone riding a bike at 95 is subject to a greater penalty than someone driving a Porsche. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lindsey 0 #53 March 26, 2008 Is it fair to lose your car for drinking and driving - assuming you don't hit anyone else? I've never seen anyone forfeit their car over a DWI, but I've seen someone lose his boat because of a little weed. Ouch. He was probably MUCH less dangerous than either the drunk driver or the fast guy on the bike. linz-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

Unless Mr. Motorola is flying a helicopter and the guy he's chasing is a complete noob, his chances are slim to none..... Action©Sports Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OHCHUTE 0 #58 June 6, 2013 Research suggests going faster causes less accidents. Hell, at the light, I bonk the horn and the lady up front on her cell pulls forward and hits the car in front of her. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RonD1120 62 #59 June 6, 2013 I ride my bike IAW the speed limits. I assume that if I go faster my chances of getting killed are increased.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
