Idiots like that need to face more severe penalties.  $25,000 fine, 1 year licence suspension (with redo test), and probation.  If anyone was hurt, jail time!

Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

It's been a long time since I've seen a Herald in any sort of road worthy condition.
On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Not really my neighbourhood, but a few neighbourhoods away, I saw a Bricklin SV-1 parked on the side of the street.  Not sure if it was real, or a replica (although who would build a Bricklin replica?).  I didn't get a picture as I had the whole family in the car, and they would have thought me crazy to stop and take a picture of a car.

I don't think I've ever seen one in the flesh, so to see a wild Bricklin parked on a street was pretty wild.

LOL.  Still, a pretty rare site.  They only built 2854 cars.
