but what if the vehicle moving into your lane is a tank?...do you think you could share the lane with a tank?...I don't think you could...

you are claiming that a bike should use its
natural ability to ride above the law... and
to have the law compensate them for their abilities.
which is gay.

if your argument were effective -- then semis
could lax off on that rule and use their sheer
bulk to push other drivers around (not that they
don't)... and then be compensated because hey,
they are big.

its like that time we were buttfucked in that
one-lane conway traffic... and there were cars
cutting on the shoulder to get around...
you commented on the fact that they shouldn't
do that and how it pisses you off.

seems contradictory.....

you either follow the rules or you don't.

you cannot allow for bikes to have special laws
when, in the case of the conway traffic, its
not fair that a smaller car can use the shoulder.

<font size="4" face="Tempus Sans ITC, Tahoma">Gay? No. What's gay is the government telling me how fast I can go. Speed limits are gay. Let's take a visit back to EK3's post....

the speed limits aren't set for the vehicle's limits...they are set for the humans limit

<font size="4" face="Tempus Sans ITC, Tahoma">Wrong wrong wrong.

Speed limits are not set for humans limits. They are set for revenue. Remember when all interstate speed limits were 55? No 70 or 65 anywhere....55. It was like that for years until they finally changed it back in the early 90's. Are you telling me that we all of a sudden became better drivers so they decided to raise the speed limits? No...it was other factors.

Why rely on others to tell you how you should drive? What if the government set a limit on the number of times you could wipe your ass?

Fine...I'll give you the fact that speed limits could be for revenue...but moving them from 55-75...albeit is a big difference...75 is not going that fast...but going 90-100 is much different...the car starts floating...and much more concentration is needed...if you think speed limits should be 90+...you're fucking crazy...

ahhhhhhhh but since the cop will be writting you a speed expidition ticket which he has to prove that you were in some way shape or form ignoring the speed limits and standards set by the government arent we really talking about the "speed" then

my argumentative post was in direct relation to
tg and that stupid comment he made.
the thread has since gone askew due to the fact
that tg attempted to justify his mistake...
bringing it around to a speeding issue...
which isn't what is being said at all

[TastinGood]

False.

Only parts of Montana interstates dont have speed limits. That being the very remote parts (isnt all of Montana remote?).

Actually though, I remember hearing rumblings about Montana reinstating Speed Limits everywhere a year or so ago. If I were actually thinking of moving to Montana I would go and look it up.

And I also know that even in the places in MT that had no limits, they could get you on other technicalities such as "Reckless Driving" or whatever the hell they call it.

The autobahn is where it's at....
