recommended speed...



well, this is the recommended speed for this week...the speed bump is coming on monday...proceed slowly and know that going any faster than this could hurt you...

i was driving home and i saw a sign that says "no center stripe 45 mph" and then 4 ft later, a texas speed limit sign with the usual post of 70 mph...i felt as if the sign meant that if i saw no center stripe, then slow to 45 mph, BUT if not, then the regular speed was okay...

consider this- if there is no center stripe for only 15 ft, is this long enough to even be able to slow down to 45 mph? math is not my forte, but from experience, i know that it is not possible...so my question would be, "did i break the law?" it would be like crossing the street and using the walk/don't walk sign as a signal to either walk or not even if it is in the middle of the street...like rainman...

hope all goes well this week!! so much to do, so little time...hurry up!! i am living for may 19th...

i have speed humps in my neighborhood, and i also have speed bumps, it is determined by the size of said mound of asphalt, sorry to take the piss out of the fun, but there is a difference, humps being the larger measure.

that's funny, i had no idea that humps were akin to mounds of asphalt...i was considering more the idea of a 9 1/2 mph hump...way to ruin my dream...
