There are lots of people out there that have still never heard of it.
Theres a lot of people that think its simply the next kazza, including a collegue of mine (a continual bullshitter) who swears the creator went to jail.
You miss The point, neither the risk nor the chance of it being a certain size have changed. If you look at the empire state building and say it's 1300' tall, you then measure it with a tape measure, you don't change it's height
Indeed, I defended the right of the nazi-like BNP party to speak at Exeter University, even though I stand for the complete opposite of their views (left wing authoritarians close to Stalin or Hitler). Ban one view, and before long another view is banned, and another...
First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out -- because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the communists and I did not speak out -- because I was not a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out -- because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me -- and by then there was no one left to speak out for me.
No, I just get annoyed when the same brigade come out with their brainwashed "speed kills, think of the children" crap
Shooting a machine gun into a tree is harmless, shooting a pistol into a crowd isn't. Saying "speeding's bad" is like saying "shooting's bad". To borrow a phrase: "Speed doesnt kill people, people kill people."
Indeed, all it takes is the next "Blaster" worm, or similar, to blow up hardware and start causing real costs for home users (instead of lost data and time which most domestic people dont often equate with cost)
Unless you set the limit knowing full well it's an advisory limit, however also knowing it's harder for a cop to proove you were driving at an unsafe speed then driving faster than an arbitary limit.
That means safe drivers at limit + 10 are let off, but unsafe drivers at limit + 5 can be pulled over without any need for the cop to proove you were driving dangerously.
(and I say that in full recognition of the fact that speeding can be fatal to third parties)
Actually speeding can't. being hit by a car can be fatal, but the mere act of speeding is harmless.
Of course being hit by a car at 1mph under the limit can be just as fatal as being hit by a car at 1mph over the speed limit, depending on envirnmental, car and driver conditions
Or, I simply won't take the plane. I don't own it, so I have no right to say what goes in it. If the carrier wants me to be anethesised when I'm onboard, that their right to ask that.
hence the problem. Say this kind of evidence is used 1,000,000 times in court. Chances are in one of those cases "someone would have intentionally had to get you in an accident while your box was malfunctioning."
Yes, if you want to have this box in your car, by all means opt in. If you dont want it, you shouldn't have to have it. You'll pay higher insurance premiums, but thats fair.
The maximum speed is not the same for every driver/car/environment combination, some people can driver perfectly safely at 90, while others at jittery at 70. Why should everyone be kept to a potentiall dangerous low speed because of a few people?
Whats $2 million to people who have buisness contacts in Nigeria, have hundereds of thousands of dollars in cash through the mail every day, have a 16" penis, get free prescription drugs, have computer patches delivered to their inbox, have free accounts at thousands of porn sites and have 17 mail order Russian brides.

you assume that they'll let you go
Thats what they say
If she'd had any form of valid photo id (ie identity card) then she would have been ok
If she forgot her passport why wouldn't she forget her ID card?
I always wanted a Treehouse, but we never had a tree in our garden. Fortunatly they provide the tree for you, a snip at $1 million

That's what the Moon is - a very large space station in orbit 240,000 miles above the Earth.
That's no moon, its a space station!
can't drink for more then 12 hours before going on the job
Now if you go out and get smashed,
I'm impressed if you can drink for more then 12 hours without getting smashed
They can't drink 12 hours before going on the job.
Hey, I can't drink for more then 12 hours before going on the job either, at least not unless the boss is off
I'm sure you get fusion by then. IIRC Microwave comes in 2028
Not in the UK. Buy the phone or sim, and you don't need to register. If you're really paranoid buy a second hand phone and sim through the paper.

Indeed. Until someone with a binary asks for the code, and the company refuses to give it out, there is no violation.

And does that apply if you are walking on a public road too?

Right. I believe you.
hence the problem. Say this kind of evidence is used 1,000,000 times in court. Chances are in one of those cases "someone would have intentionally had to get you in an accident while your box was malfunctioning."
But if the box says so, it must be right.

How serious? Enough to get the cop sacked? Or enough to get the whole scheme overturned?
