I've lived in a lot of parts (including ones where they say pardner for realsies) and I said "I" consider. That's the cool thing about being an adult. I get to make big important decisions for myself and deal with any consequences. For example, I've driven through red lights (after stopping) when there's obviously no one coming. Could I get a ticket? Sure. But it's a risk I'll take. In general, I'll drive at a speed I consider safe regardless of what the signs suggest. I hope everyone else does the same. I mean, I didn't get my GED just to let some silly sign tell me what to do.

Is it safe to assume you live in Texas?

Ah, man! Don't insult all of us from Texas! I'm an excellent driver....don't let this big ole girl ruffle feathers...though his posts do make me giggle. My philosophy with bad drivers is "Those who pay LESS insurance always go first"...since I drive a nice vehicle, you go ahead...take all the time & room you need...but remember...I could be part of a jury of your peers if/when you're up for trial. Zero tolerance. Just sayin'.

Well, I did live in Texas for several years. Talk about speeders!!! I-75 is like Death Race 3000!

I think it's funny you think I don't drive a nice vehicle. I'll have you know my pea green (factory original) Pinto is in mint condition (give or take) and is an excellent deterrent to tailgaters.

And a deterrent to thieves...win..win!

Yeah, they were just opening the George Bush Expressway when I was exiting the area. Been back a few times and, I've got to say, it's completely confusing to me now. However, my return visits are no longer allowed due to some ongoing legal issues. I'm sure that will all get cleared up soon though. Either through due process or statute of limitations I supposed. Fingers-crossed!!
