Vintage art

I saw today a friend of mine has almost the same interest as me in vintage art.
Which triggered me on a hunting spree for the vintage pin up art pictures.
I just love these pictures these are so elegantly done.
Some people may think these are rude or porn but to me it is art as it is elegant and classic.
It's just so pretty.

Fatal Crashes on the highways recently.

Reading about the fatal accidents on the highways in Malaysia recently, is making me more nervous about driving outstation.

In my job, I tend to travel alot. Driving a 13 yr old car, alone on the highway, always makes me extra cautious. I tend to drive around 80-90km per hour and never drive on the fast lane.

There were many times when my fellow road users make me so angry because they have totally no regard for the safety of those around them.
Big vehicles, like express buses, trailers, trucks, lorries big or small, will be zooming way past their speed limit of 80/90km/h. Many times they will drive as close to the back of my car and flash their lights to tell me to move out of their way. What I do not understand is why can't they over take my slower car instead of trying to force me to move away? I'm already driving in the slow lane, why can't they understand that if you want to overtake a slow vehicle use the right lane?

There was once a truck carrying oil, who practically forced me out of the far left lane and I had to drive off the road into the grassy area! There were no vehicles in the middle lane but he refused to overtake my car properly, he tailgated me for about  1 minute flashing his lights and then when I refused to move into the right lane, he over took my car and on purpose cut right in front of me half of the body of his truck almost slammed into my car and it was 2o'clock in the afternoon!

Why is it there are people who are so selfish when driving? Seriously, These types of drives need to be put away before the murder innocent people.


Why can't large vehicles be implemented with a devise that controls the speed limit?
I think this is the only way if we cannot control these drivers and we want to do something about our own safely on the roads, then PLEASE DO something!
