With the tragic and senseless
automoble-caused death of Princess Diana, ACI,
the newly formed Automobile Control, Inc.,
herewith launches it's campaign to ban
automobiles capable of exceeding 70 MPH. These
automobiles shall heretofore be referred to in
the mass media as "Assault Vehicles".
These assault vehicles are responsible for the
needless deaths of thousands of innocent
Americans each year -- far more in a single year
than all the victims of gunshots in the past ten
years! There is no reason for anyone to own a
vehicle that is capable of exceeding the legal
speed limit in
America, except for those elite and highly
trained members of our Emergency Response
Agencies and registered race car drivers while
operating their vehicles exclusively on a
registered race track.
We are calling for an immediate ban on the sale
of any vehicle in America that is not equipped
with a speed governor. Further, we call on
Congress to pass criminal penalties of not less
than 10 years imprisonment and a $100,000.00 fine
for anyone found in possession of a vehicle
wherein the
speed governor has been altered or disconnected.
In addition, we ask for emergency legislation
requiring all automobiles currently on the road
to be fitted with a federally approved speed
governor at the owner's expense within a 120 day
period. Any vehicle found operable after that
grace period without the required speed governor
shall be impounded and forfeited by the owner.
This legislation will save thousands of American
lives.
It is the hope of ACI that Congress will also
look into the benefits of limiting the fuel range
of all vehicles to no more than 100 miles. By
limiting the capacity of fuel tanks, drivers will
be forced to stop at increased intervals to
refuel, allowing them to freshen themselves and
reduce the fatigue from extended driving periods
that can lead to inattention and drowsiness.
Although not an issue directly related to the
assault vehicle menace, ACI will push for
legislation banning the public
consumption of any and all alcoholic beverages.
Alcohol, if consumed at all, must be limited to
the personal residence of the consumer. No
consumption of alcohol should ever occur in
public places such as bars, nightclubs, football
games, restaurants -- or any other place where
the consumer will have to leave the place of
consumption in order to return to his/her home.
Any driver found to have consumed any alcohol in
any amount will be severely punished. This
legislation will serve to dramatically reduce the
number of alcohol related automobile deaths and
injuries each year.
ACI has secured the cooperation, participation
and support of the American media, President
Clinton, First Lady Hillary, Madonna, Elton John
and the British Royal Family in this worthwhile
cause. All supporters recognize the inability of
the unwashed masses to act responsibly all of the
time.
We recognize there are those who
take personal responsibility seriously, and we
applaud you. Nevertheless, we expect and demand
the cooperation of all citizens in this most
worthwhile cause, to bring safety to all in this
new world order.
Peace and prosperity to all!
