Am I allowed to complain when I’m going above the speed limit in the right lane and get tailgated?

The diference is that you don’t leave traces of your national I.D. behind in everything you touch. You can control who sees your birth certificate. As for a fingerprint database, yes that is every bit as bad as a DNA database. I see that as a reason to oppose both, not allow both.

When I lived in Zimbabwe two decades ago, 504s were all over the place. I only saw two 304s.

I got overtaken a few nights ago by a slammed Mustang. Fine. No problem.

My nipples explode with delight.

While I agree that sound democracies abound, (and frankly, as a U.S. citizen, I’m sometimes not convinced the U.S. counts among them) I think it’s worth pointing out that Kuwait certainly is not one. Also worth noting is that DNA is not just means to identify whoever is linked to “wrongdoing” but a means to identify…

The first car I ever drove was a 1967 Fiat 850 spyder, red, exactly like your example. I was 9 at the time.

He means, basically, “never drive so fast that you can’t stop within the distance that you can see”. (I think)

Gotta love that manual steering and the five-in-the-tree transmission! And the 2.4 litre non-turbo diesel! SWEET!

“witch led the pilot”...

What, exactly, is a “multi-mode” manual transmission?

I have all the gauges I need. I’ll just take the yellow lamps, and the hoof job, and be on my way.

Dr. Crusher and Picard got married, briefly, if I recall correctly, and they were both rather embarrassed about it later.

“The Secretive Life of Sally Ride” would have been a more accurate headline.

...the germ argument is the same for any densely populated area...

I love how they cross themselves before setting off.

So, what exactly IS a Dacia Nova? I am familiar with the Renault-12-based 1300, and the more recent Logan, Sandero, and Duster, but what is this thing based on? It looks like an Isuzu I-Mark, but that wouldn’t fit in with their history of co-operating with Renault.

“...zapped in their haste.”

Yet, in Europe, almost all of their sales are by special order, so someone in the organization must know how to do it.

I truly do love my VW, but if someone asks me if they should get one, 50% of the time I say NO. Some people just aren’t up to the “ownership experience” Though worth it for some, a VW owner needs to be committed. (or maybe we SHOULD be committed?) VW is what Alfa Romeo used to be.
