    “Go for the high score” is definitely a thought that crosses my mind every time I see one of those speed radar things the police sometimes put on the side of the road that flashes your speed at you. Kinda feel like those things actually encourage unsafe driving because of people like me with impulse control issues.

      Those with impulse control issues that would cause them to drive recklessly “for the memes” shouldn’t have a license

      I like when it just flashes two lines at me. For context I’m surrounded by these where nobody has been working for months. I always look ahead to see if anyone is actually working before I blow through them.

      There really needs to be some accountability for turning off the “55 while flashing” lights because so many of those still going off clearly are not supposed to be.
