Im just glad that I live about a mile from work, so I use my feet. I sold my ranger last year, and therefor am not an automobile owner. Im not missing the insurance and gas costs, not to mention the maint. There is a woman who lives about 1/3 of a mile from where I work, and she will drive her H2 just to get a cup of coffee at my workspace... 2 days ago someone keyed her nice "little" H2, she is lucky they didnt slash her tires....

Your entire post reeks of holier-than-thou. Someone is "lucky" they only got their car keyed ::) You imply she's wrong for stopping at the coffee shop you work at, when you know nothing about her other than where she lives and what she drives.
You're claiming you like the economic impact of your choices, yet can't fathom why someone sees their economic impact as acceptable to them. It quite simply doesn't matter one whit what YOU think of their economic choices, but then again, this really isn't about their use of their money, is it? Perhaps when your militant brand of "moralism" comes down to the level you expect everyone else to apply to you, it actually might happen. Until then, you're begging for treatment you aren't willing to give to others. Someone might be thinking you're a religious person, based on the intolerance simmering in your views of others ::)
Hypocrite.

From riding a motorcycle I have this advice: Pretend everyone is out to KILL you and you should be O.K.
Truth is, there probably are people out to kill anyone on 2 wheels, and many others just don't care to give you the respect/right of ways as another vehicle. It is a common myth that motorcycles stop faster than cars, and many drivers will try to use that to gain a few seconds since they are late for work while talking on the cell phone, putting on makeup, reading the newspaper and eating breakfast simultaneously.
The worst part is, after running over someone on 2 wheels (sometimes even in fatal accidents) a simple "I didn't see them" is usually all they need to say to avoid any legal ramifications. Ridiculous but true. :dizzy:

The video has a nice point, but at the same time it's like comparing apples and oranges. First things they asked was how many passes the white team made. So of course I'm concentrating on the white team, and blocking out the black team. And anything else that's black as well. In a car I'd be watching out for everything, not just one particular event.
