This is preferable to sitting through a 5 hour “Alive at 25” course. They make you watch gruesome scenes of high speed wrecks.

Road signs, like safety regulations, are written in blood. There was a big drive a few years ago to get the aristocracy to donate blood so that they could use the colour blue on road signs.

They could always harvest the government’s spittle so could use brown instead

Where might I find one of these hamburger cars used for luring children and then running them over?
