After going through our ballots for vote decision time, and seeing what 
happened to our previous older vehicle exemption act, I have a few 
MODEST proposals that should be on the state ballots for all those 
states fortunate enough to have empowered the people to initiate binding 
law changes.

Proposition AAA: Air Quality Improvement Act.

A yes vote on this proposition would require all cars authorized to use 
roadways funded with public funds to remove the pistons and connecting 
rods that exceed the number of road wheels. The number of road wheels 
allowed on the highway shall not exceed 4, regardless of the number of 
axles.

Commercial vehicles under 2,000 pounds gross vehicle weight, and cars 
made for model years prior to 1967 are exempt from this regulation.

Proposition BBB:  Parking Lot Safety Measure.

A yes vote on this proposition would require all vehicles that exceed 5 
feet at the highest point on the body, including accessory extensions, 
shall be reduced to meet the 5 foot requirement.  This assures 
visibility of surrounding vehicles, and operators of such, that are 
parked alongside non conforming vehicles, be given a fair chance to 
enter and leave their parking space without endangering pedestrians and 
other vehicles.

This law applies to all commercial property and municipal parking lots, 
and does not restrict an owner of a non complying vehicle from keeping 
it on their own contiguous property, providing there are no liens, 
loans, or delinquent taxes on said property.

Removed vehicle parts must be disposed of in accordance with local 
hazardous material requirements.

Proposition CCC:  Car Speed Safety Tests

All vehicles licensed for public road use must demonstrate the 
capability of exceeding 100 MPH on a straight dry highway at least once 
every 5 years.  Every 10 MPH in excess of this requirement will extend 
the retest time by 3 years and the owner shall be awarded a compensation 
of $750 per mile per hour in excess of target requirements, adjusted by 
COLA (Cost of Living Adjustment) annually.


Well, anyone can propose anything.

Any co-signers out there?
