My father has some amusing stories about driving in Sicily.
Two Gates the silent House of Sleep adorn; Of polish'd Iv'ry this, that of transparent Horn:
True Visions thro' transparent Horn arise; Thro' polish'd Iv'ry pass deluding Lies.

Sicily is full of mafioso, and royalty, I'd assume they drive rather calmly!?

No... the cops drive twice the legal speed limit, and people flash their lights trying to pass the cops.
Which I'm sure would be a lot funnier if you lived in the USA, since that just doesn't happen here. |

Speaking of USA; the biggest speeding ticket ever issued is in Texas I belive. 240 or so miles per hour.
I never knew they were so friendly with the cops over there, but I don't think it's too surprising either! |

...damn. Texas has the fastest speed limits in the US, but that's still three times that.

That's why the dude got his ticket! I think it was a speed camera that got him... The ones used in like UK don't go off if the car goes faster than some 180mph (?) I wonder if they use some mighty fine speed cameras in Texas

They have speed cameras here, but I have no idea of how good they are.

They have "Aggressive Driver Imaging" here, but I have no idea what that does.

We have lazy cops here. I've only been pulled over twice.

Well that is good for you I guess!
Anyhow, I have to close this forum. |
