Gee Trevor you must work for the government I didn't mean to ruffle your feathers!I don't think they are all out to get us I think we will let them get us by our apathy or naiveté I don't know how old you are but maybe you are too young to remember where you just went down to the DMV and plunked down your $5 and drove off happily into the sunset,it seems YOU don't get the point about the control that the government and agencies have over your life that wasn't there 30 ~40 years ago We didn't need them to take care of us You seem to want that womb to tomb safety net that only they can provide.If you want to run around without bumpers you should be able to If I want to put a crossflow head and webers on my 79B I should be able to If you don't want to wear seatbelts you should be able not to!All these safety and pollution items on cars should have been driven by public demand not legislation,If people were going into auto dealers demanding air bags the auto makers would have put them on soon enough but nobody was concerned and some beaurocrat Isn't it rediculous when a car fails smog just because the gas cap isn't the right one(it happened on my wifes car)I hope you will be happy in the brave new world that is waiting for you but I sure as hell won't!
