Saw an old lady getting out of a BMW X7 M60i (the high performance version). I asked her what made her choose the M60i and she just said “I dunno, the salesman said it was the best one they had”.

    Impeding the flow of traffic (like driving too slow) is a finable offence in big parts of the first world countries. You are supposed to drive near the speed limit if the road and weather conditions allow for it. People that are to scared to do that on an open road should think about taking a few more driving lessons (and are in my opinion usually unfit to sit behind the wheel)

      So hmm… The road through the neighborhood in front of my house is 25MPH, how fast can you peddle? The road connecting to it is 35MPH. I don’t know a single person that can peddle that fast yet they are legally able to use these streets provided they are wearing a helmet, remain within the lane going their direction of travel, and don’t use assistive technology that exceeds 25MPH.

      I’ll personally just not excees the speed limit (maybe it’s age starting to play a role) and risk the ticket. People get pissed all the time because they would prefer to go faster than 25 or 35 on these roads, but the limit is the limit to me (until they change the wording).
