Wheeler Look, T.C., I can understand you being concerned about your kids welfare, and I'm not going to argue about whether or not I should speed, but I resent the fact that you are associating speeders with hit-and-run. People who hit-and-run are sick sick sick, and should be locked up, but DON'T generalize like that. I admit that I speed, although not like some people, but does that make me a hit-and-run driver? Cool down a little bit before you write your articles. JMN I'd rather be skiing :-)
