Driving Laws Suck

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007

This evening we got a decent dusting of snow. Probably one inch.
No plows. No salt.

FUN!!!!!!!

But no, laws prevent me from doing anything fun with my car on the road.
Of course I couldn’t resist throwing the rear end out a few times and taking a few corners relatively sideways.
The “snow” setting on my car is VERY effective. Not nearly as much torque to the rear wheels, but my car has more than ample power to spin break all four tires loose. Even at 30mph in a high gear.
I switched it to “tarmac” a few times and definitely felt the rear end a bit less stable as the car distributed power.

I salute you, Fun Nazi’s of the world.
Thanks for making driving a chore rather than a hobby.
Thanks for making people so worried when they get behind the wheel they end up driving 15mph in a 50 when there are flurries.
Thanks for punishing those of us who enjoy driving, especially in less than ideal conditions.
Thanks for being so enthralled with the ability to impose rules/laws on the public that you end up banning everything that is fun just so you can feel important.

(and no I didn’t get a ticket, this is just a general complaint)

Pictures!!
