"Single car gravel road out in the middle of no where, wheres the felony?? Now yes if it was 2 car or more but this was a simple going to fast in a gravel road and a simple flip over. As for where the cops called I do not know all I was there for was to pull the car out of the ditch and haul it home and for all I know it was probably 30 minutes to an hour before I was even called"
Old did NOT know if the cops were called. He may have been UNKNOWINGLY guilty of an infraction, but I doubt anything would come of it. What do you mean by "In Iowa it is a set amount that everyone is supposed to know if you have a licence."? That statement doesn"t make sense, can you explain that better? I understand why the deputy made the guy use a licensed tow driver to pull the car out of the field, if someone hit a citizen trying to recover a vehicle and they don"t have the proper training or warning lights, they may cause an accident. Having said that, a couple of years ago, I helped pull a State salt truck back onto the road. The driver had tried to stop to check on someone who had slid of the other side of the road and she slid off herself. The road was covered in black ice. Technically it was an "accident", but we needed that salt truck back on the road ASAP to prevent more accidents, and it was late at night so there was not much traffic. The tow truck would have probably taken an hour to reach us, so I told her we"d just spread some salt on the road and I"d use a tow strap to assist her out. It only took about 5 minutes. Might have been technically illegal, but it was the right thing to do.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Lead Substitutes - by Mike Schordine. Lead was oriinally added to gasoline as an upper cylinder lubricant. It lubes the valves and seats. If you rebuild the motor, you could use hardened seats and valves, and unleaded fuel. But if your old tractor runs good, a simple lead substitute added to the gas is a perfectly reasonable solution. And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water.
