Remember white-wall automobile tires? If they made a comeback, would you use them?

Not too long ago, tires had both and you could chose.

  In some locations, the practice of offering automobile tires in various colors became a crime-related problem because gang members used them for marking their territory and/or for antagonizing rival gangs. The way it was done was through skid marks, some of which were so elaborate that they resembled graffiti that had been created by spray paint. A gang would use wheelies and other stunt-like driving maneuvers to slather streets showing who owned what, and then another gang would cover the first markings with their own in challenge to the original gang. Crossing over or crossing out another gang’s marls marks was grounds for war, which was often the result of such an action. Law enforcement agencies and public safety officials went to the tire manufacturers to request that the product line be scrapped, with obvious results (profits and bottom lines can’t be interferes with for a silly matter of curbing violence or maintaining peace).

Hmm...a movie plot.

You Brits are so clever, aren't you then?

Correct,this ones a right little smart arse....given half a chance....:) 
I must say that you're very talented four noticing.....:)D xx 

Of course, even though you lot drive on the wrong side of the road, with or without whitewalls! I once visited Jamaica, and they do it there as well.

Funny how there are more vehicle  crashes and deaths in America on the road then there are in England.    ..  Now who drives on the wrong side of the road....:)D 

We have ten times the population of England...therefore ten times the idiots.

Do split Hares and I bet Randy D didn't know that until you let the cat out of the bag Papa.....

Now what's all this about you having cats in bags ?    :) 

I agree the type of proportionality is correct, but the multiplier might be a little higher.  (Nothing against Australia or England---just an observation about idiots)

(then than)

Bring it on.....:)
