Tachophobia: Oh no! What should I do?
« on: March 08, 2010, 06:59:52 PM »
The doctor called me into his office the other day.
I rushed over as fast as I could.
After extensive/intrusive testing of my cranial cavities
he declared I just pay the fine for.....

Can you tell me what the fine was for?
 ;D
And what is the cure?

My tachometer does not record, it does display, was record an option I did not acquire?


My cars record engine RPM in its computer memory, also speed, which can be used against me in a court of law...

Fear of speed?  Fine for going too slow?

Obviously, the fine is for speeding.  The only cure is to go faster, until you are no longer afraid ;D
