Message-ID: <271@hou2h.UUCP> Date: Fri, 27-Jan-84 23:28:23 EST Article-I.D.: hou2h.271 Posted: Fri Jan 27 23:28:23 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 31-Jan-84 02:37:42 EST Organization: Bell Labs, Holmdel NJ Lines: 16 Say, how did this brouhaha about tailgatingfastdrivingseatbelts- seatbeltlawshelmetlaws, not to mention scraping hash off the pavement, got started anyway? Any instant net historian care to put things in perspective? First I remember reading about some out of the blue tip from a certain Safe_Driver about how to deal with tailgaters, then the go_fast_bad_dudes come out of the woodwork, then some Mr Nice Guy start calling fellow netters "egg-sucking fools", and next thing I know the august Mr Horton had to come on to admonish everybody to move their lively discussion to net.auto. Au "Canada have a seat belt law don't they?" Nguyen ..!hou2h!an
