  1. Re:I know the perfect defence on Houston Police Test Unmanned Surveillance Aircraft · · Score: 3, Insightful
    Think about that:

    The truth is, the posted speed limits are set low enough that even poor drivers are relatively harmless to others. A skilled driver will be able to drive faster than the speed limit without endangering anybody. That means that poor drivers should not drive faster than the speed limit, because they would be endangering others.

    Another thing is, if everyone is going 15 mph above the limit and there's one guy who insists on going exactly the limit, that person is creating a safety hazard as everyone tries to pass him. That means that therefore a poor driver, who can't safely drive faster than the speed limit now has two choices:
    1. going faster than the speed limit and endangering everybody else
    2. not going faster than the speed limit and being a safety hasard, in other words endangering everybody else

    Well, this is probably a translation, so most of us are helped more with the translation, even if a translation has no binding value and is therefore only approximately correct.

    Other than France, NO country is truly dependent on Nukes (America is 2'nd largest user at only 19%). Which is a bit strange given the fact that Belgium gets more than 55% of its energy from nuclear sources.
