Do not Brake -1 - Monday, July 17, 2006

We see it every day.

We hear it first.

From somewhere the sound of engine noise increasing as a vehicle accelerates, seconds later we see the vehicle brake at the red stop lights.

I see the lights turn amber then red before the vehicle accelerates, I hear the vehicle accelerate, then see it brake at the red stop light.

Why?

It makes no sense. It is non-sense. Or to carry on, the driver is making non-sense of their actions. They are in-sane.

Burning gasoline solely in order to convert the energy of motion into heat on the brake pads is another way of sending money up in smoke.
