Well, this has certainly turned into an interesting
discussion!  I agree with Rocket J Squirrel about
having something on the back to let people know  "I'm
givin' her all I've got" - - what I've always
envisioned is that robot in the old Gyro Gearloose
cartoons (the one-wheeled gizmo with a light bulb for
a head) zig-zagging madly along behind me, light bulb
a-blinkin', holding a sign saying, "slow vehicle
ahead"!  But seriously, I think having that reflective
tape on the rear really helps.  Also, would like to
comment that during an interstate trip last summer, in
which I drove my '85 Mercedes Diesel, even going 75 on
I-40 still felt like going 55 in the VW.  Was I ever
relieved to get back on the two-lane!  It doesn't seem
to me to matter how fast or slow you go, there's
always someone going faster.

Cheers, etc.,
Gary
