Why is it that we never hear of police issuing tickets to drivers for driving with bald tires or poor brakes after all those are the things that usually cause accidents. All you hear is that speed was a factor or the word "racing" is mentioned. Why pick on seasoned car enthusiasts that enjoy cars in general. How could you crush my car just because it fits the right profile. Thats just like saying, just because you have a gun collection you will go to jail because someday you might shoot someone. I thought this was a free country, innocent till proven guilty. I guess the government will do anything to make money.

Re: New law

I wonder what could be done to eliminate the new speeding law where your vehicle is impounded. After all Fantinos plane should be paid for by now. I guess the German government actually cares about the safety of the motorists and our cares about making money and looking good for the media. I wish someone would actually try to organize a press conference or something in those lines to educate the public about safety and whats really going on.

Re: New law

We don't need the press conference. We have a very good discussion right here, where everyone is invited, including the press conference!
