"Stops you"? In what way? You mean, pulls you over to talk to you? Or "stops you" by putting the cuffs on and "stops you" from moving around freely?

So does this 'photographers right' apply to every state in the country, or just the state of Oregon? As I recall, this incident happened in the state of Washington.

Pure BS.
He's right, how would you account for the reflection of the sun off of a panel like that? Ever tried looking at one yourself at an angle in the sun? Whoever modded this modded it wrong, or they're for the killing of soldiers. I've never been in the military and even I'd stick with the AA-battery idea.
Automation is one thing, driver education is another.
Defensive driver courses are a much better target for the money, as they benefit the people driving directly. Even teenagers can take them. Plus, you get 10% off of your car insurance. AAA handles them all over the place.
It depends on what area of the country you're talking about. If you think that all public schools teach the same things, then clearly your perception of American education is not correct.
Many schools don't have such courses, so colleges wind up picking up the slack where they leave off. Therefore, only the kids who are exposed to schools and districts where any kind of computer courses are offerred really benefit.
Of course, if there's no interest in a community, then why should a district impose such a level of technology? After all, everyone has computers at home and kids are growing up with them, just like people have been growing up with cars for well over 50 years now and so driver education got integrated somehow.
Trying to be happy is like trying to build a machine for which the only specification is that it should run noiselessly.
