    Muleskinner,

    The more I read your post, the more I liked it. Until I realized you meant this system for truck drivers.

    However, a minor modification could be arranged for installation in 4-wheelers:

    Remove the Mobilization Engineer Regulator and replace it with a Master Orientation Refiner, Original Negation System. Instead of a 20,000 volt attitude corrector, the M.O.R.O.N.S. would be issued a 12 gauge permanent correction device.

    Said device would be mounted in the seat, aimed straight up; this would provide the shortest route from the active point of the device to the driver's brains.

    The purpose of the device is not, as one would suspect, punishment. Rather, it's designed to allow maximum airflow (air, containing oxygen) to the brain. Indeed, it would be difficult to imagine getter airflow to all parts of the brain than having it scattered all over the car.

    -------

    I apologize if this sounds like a rather extreme measure.. I'm in a vile mood - some <ahem> came close to running my wife's ambulance off the road this evening.

    :biggrin_25514::biggrin_25514:I agree with you totally....When I worked as a LEO, traffic was the MAIN danger that I faced. Although most cops like to strut around like Rambo,they have a 60000% higher chance of being taken out by a 75 yo grandma in a Buick Electra 225 than going out in a blaze of glory shooting it out with a world class badazz( or any badazz for that matter).
