Even if it was you, you need to tell me the secret of posthumous posting.

If you see Jim Morrison, say Hi; big fan.

Maybe where you live but here in sunny California it's legal to drive between cars on the freeway. Very stupid when traffic is not slowed for congestion and I see it done every week. There is just no room for error from either party and guess who winds up dead.

I have seen morons on motor cycles and in cars I like to say when people get their driving license they need to go to truck driving school and then spend a month or two riding in a semi

Yeah, true. I know first hand there are a lot of MC riders and without the proper gear, it's not a shock when one of them is maimed. Riders should do all they can to minimize the risk and protect themselves before shouting "Watch out for me!". Watch out for yourself first.
