Polizei 144...the only reason why I watch Gumball at all... not for the exotics or the girls
actually for Gumball they've now a Bentley Continental GT, which sucks...
I hate that big show-off car

What a cool article. Glad you guys liked it. I would like to see the "car documentary" about it. Would be nice to be independently wealthy.

And light poles can tag you by the RFid Chip Implanted by the dealer after the speed camera and the cops and the ever growing metropolis that is California slows you down.

That is too true. I can't believe how much privacy and freedom we are losing everyday. The sad thing is that the majority of the media doesn't even report on it.

I have a cop friend down in Atlanta, and he told me that using those cruisecards, the tollbooth north of Buckhea logs the speed you go through it, whether you think it does or not, and while they can't ticket you on it because they a) don't list it as a speed camera and B) can't prove who was driving, IF you get pulled over, when they run your tags, the cop can see how many times you've sped through the toll, the average speed you go through it as well as your max recorded speed. The Atlanta police are instructed to provide no leniency for those who speed through the toll booth when they get pulled over for speeding at other times.


Just another way America is becoming less free every day.

because Media is controlled by US government and even more by people representing corporate/private interests

edit: no, I'm not someone who's interested in conspiracy theories
I'm just stating obvious facts
it's sad to say that those who once claimed to be the country of the free are now suffering from controlled media and a bad government and especially arbitrariness of the authorities
