Okay, Cobrabill, you have the biggest pair on the planet. No wonder you don't ride a bike. They'd get caught in the chain!

While the details police are out in force, would your box car incident have been more or less scary if you would have been closer to town and in broad daylight?

I thought about the barking comment, too. Didn't feel like editing it. Apparently you understood what I meant. Maybe I should get a job writing newspaper headlines.

Same for the speed limit remark. I was referring to cars. Since you say the statutes don't mention speed limits for bicycles specifically, does that mean I don't have to obey them coming down a mountain pass? 60 mph on a bicycle is a great thrill. Try it sometime. There are minimums on some highways, thus they are closed to bicycles (some Interstates, for example).

How many peletons do you guys encounter? Are there ALWAYS groups 4 or 5 or more wide where you live? Since this is against the law, I would suggest you contact the local authorities and have it stopped. And, yes, a group of speeding Cobras does affect somebody else. When they encounter other motorists, p*ssing them off, it affects the whole Cobra community. Didn't you see the insurance thread here recently? I didn't notice your answer about whether or not any vigilante justice is justified. Breaking traffic laws shouldn't be punishable by violence.

CONTINUALLY. Hmm... any more hyperbole? I guess we could say motorists are CONTINUALLY breaking traffic laws, too. I don't know if two wrongs make a right, but three lefts do.

If your argument has been reduced to critiquing my writing style, I guess you're out of bullets.

The bottom line is for everybody to obey the law, respect each other and follow the Golden Rule.
