I used to be all about the speeding and madman driving. Totaled my first car a month after getting my lisc, had 30+ points racked up b4 I was 20, thought I could be smart and get a Va lisc while I was in the Air Force so I could avoid the long arm of NJ...etc etc etc. My last "speed binge" was in the 1996-1998 era, when I was driving a Procharged 94 TA. Lost my lisc more than I had it, and got busted twice for driving on the revoked list. I discovered what it was like to be on a train if I wanted to get any where. I finally wised up, and got myself to prit near 0 points. The last ticket I got was a week after 9-11 happened, and I was in such a daze it really didn't occur to me that I was doing 45 in a 35. Oh well. Now I'm almost a complete opposite. I'm working on max mileage w/ the Cavalier, so I do the limit or maybe even less. I stay in the slow lane, and curse at the azzclowns driving like idiots in the other lanes. But I do have my hypocritical side...I get jazzed when I see a performance car getting it on down the highway. When I drive my AMX I basically just cruise, and if I ever get my T-Type on the road I prolly won't do much nasty street driving with it either. Eventually I'm gonna turn that AMX into as close to a 200 MPH street car as possible, but will prolly just try to truck down to the Maxton mile so I can hit those speeds legally and w/o any bystanders getting hurt if something goes wrong. I'm not gonna preach to anyone about what they do on the road, 'cause I've been max dirty myself. But I hope that maybe someone can learn from my mistakes, and say "Dayum, I don't wanna be there," and wise up on the road.
