Pace cars

Seems there is new movement hereabouts that is sure to create havoc. Put a Pace Car sticker on the trunk lid and never drive over the speed limit. Set the pace for any and all vehicles. That sounds great.............but is just about the stupidest thing you can do. As we all know traffic will set it's own pace on highways and during rush hour commutes. The Leo's will normally turn a blind eye to this if everyone is 10 over the limit. Plain and simple, it works and people get about their business. They build this extra 10 over into their schedule and life is good. Now............get out that pace car and watch for road rage, dangerous passing and a few bullets in the air.
Sure, never speeding or trying to make time is for an old retired guy like me but not the rest of the world. So do what I do. Go the limit or less if desireable when there is no traffic. Once the traffic shows up I will ride or drive the speed of the rest of the world. We don't live in a perfect world and the originator of the Pace Care sticker should get a life or move to a bomb shelter never to return. That's how I see it.
