All modern fire trucks have ABS. The ABS does allow better control if you break traction, but lenthens your stopping distance. They want their drivers to not break traction, and keep the stopping distance short. Big difference between a Su

I would love, love for it to become a thing for Employers to put your money in a special type of account (similar to a Roth 401k) where the only thing you can do with it is buy insurance on the open market. Heck, even have a list of 2-3 &#x
