Speeding is Bullshit

Looks like someone got one too many fines and spat the dummy.

I can tell you for an absolute fact that speed does kill, so does alcahol, and more often than not it's both at the same time.

Its the sudden stop that kills.

Speed is a good thing, it stabilizes your bike

Re: Speeding is Bullshit

When you think about it, life causes death. You're going to die. It's inescapable, so we might as well enjoy it by doing some speeding.

Re: Speeding is Bullshit

Photo traffic enforcement is legalized theft. It's a tax passed off as a means to keep people safer. Why do we let our municipalities rob us like this? Do yourself a favor and fight back. Mount your license plate somewhere completely invisible to cameras. A lot of cops will understand. They didn't become a cop to collect taxes. What's the worst they can give you for a concealed plate? $50.00 fine? I'll take that over a $189.00 fine in the mail.

Re: Speeding is Bullshit

Actually, here, they've just made the fine $200-$300 for conceling your plate. Gotta be happy with that. NOT. If speeding was so UNSAFE, why do cops do it every chance they get, for a cat up a tree, to a fire, to a theft, to the dohnut shop at lunch? If speed kills why do I speed every friggin day and I'm still here? Bahahaha. Stupidity kills.................not speed.


Then again, if that were the case, I STILL wouldn't be here now. haha
