The radio question is crap. Serious, I set the radio when I get in the car for daily commutes. like, once a week. For road trips, I set it and forget it for the duration of the cd, which if mp3s is 6-8 hours. Does that count as "never" or "1-2/hour"?

poor questions are fail. the 40mph question is crap too, since 85% of the lights here have a min 3 sec yellow timer for anything under 45mph. above that its 10% of the road limit, so the 65mph is 6.5 seconds (I did time it just to be sure). So for me, stopping is a hazard as 90% of the drivers will continue through knowing they have 3 more seconds. Given trebuchet's calculations, and an icy road, that means I'll slide through the intersection and possibly have someone rearend me.

Fun quiz, but it needs some revision.
I scored a 73% should anyone care (I know I didn't).
