Traffic Law Question
A good one for you retired cops out there or those who think they know all about current traffic legislation!
Here is a traffic law question. If you miss it you may be too old
Traffic Question :
Most men will get this right!
Q: You are driving along a narrow two lane road with a
NO PASSING FOR 2 MILES sign posted, and you come upon a bicycle rider. Do you:
(a) Follow this slow-moving bicycle rider for the next 2 miles , or
(b) Do you break the law and pass?
Which is the correct choice?
THE CORRECT ANSWER IS:
A: Why take unnecessary risks?

As are Robin's standards.
"two M's" should read "two Ms", being a plural.

Not necessarily
The pluralization of letters, numbers and abbreviations (and some others) can use the apostrophe to make it clearer for reading and/or avoid possible confusion - "two Ms" could be misread as a multiple of the singular title sometimes used for a lady ('Ms').
But it could be better written in lower case: two m's

Just going to say that I want to be reincarnated as a bike saddle, but that might not be such a good idea.
Knowing my luck I would get Scotty.

I'll refrain from this as I reckon my helmet wouldn't be on her head.
