55MPH speed limit was Elizabeth Dole's pet project. IIRC she had a position in DOT, perhaps even Secretary of Transportation.
A friend of mine worked in the printing industry. There was a bumper sticker that the Government was handing out back then: "55 It's the Law" My friend Terry and I got together and had 500 bumper stickers made that said "55 It's the Law" and in tiny little letters in the same font, it said "and it sucks..." One night after an autocross we were all hanging out at the local bar when the bouncers threw out some loser. The guy resisted and the local constables were called in to give the guy a temporary residence for the night. While they were busy containing the guy, we snuck up on the squad cars and put our bumper sticker over the Government issue one... Nobody had a camera but we saw those squad cars running around Robbinsdale Minnesota for months with them on. They either didn't notice or didn't care... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
