Comment give it to me (Score 1) 258

I am in sales and spend a lot of time on the road. I got a car a few years ago with 20mph adaptive cruise and basic lane viewing. Also, I am an admittedly not great driver. I want this SO bad. #1 I want start/stop adaptive cruise for traffic. But someday if I can get in the car tell it to dive me to a client, and be able to be productive during that time, then when it gets to the client, find me a parking space ... wow I would be able to add 10-15hrs of work per week. I can't imagine what this will do for commuting, kick back and watch the nightly news on the drive home, get all your AM e-mail done on the way in (a la high tech mega corp google bus)... wow.

Comment 11-99 Foundation (Score 1) 760

For those in California, we all know the game. I'm surprised it hasn't been said in this thread yet (or I might not know how to search properly). Joint the 11-99 foundation. I've heard the plates cost a $10K-$25K donation to the CHP killed in action account. Many say that it is an urban legend, but I've seen and know too many who get away with whatever they want and it seems to be because of these plates. Go anywhere in SJ to SF and in the highest end valets and country clubs you will see cars with 11-99 foundation plates. I've known enough of those people to know they get away with whatever they want. I-280 going > 100mph, not unusual, cops will pull you over but keep your docs in the 11-99 wallet thing and they will give you a normal ticket. But you can go 85 all day long on any CHP road in the state and they will just give you a stern look.
