"The waiver issue has been simmering in Maine for months, since LePage and GOP lawmakers changed the eligibility requirements for MaineCare -- the state's Medicaid program -- as a way to balance the budget, upsetting many Democratic lawmakers." - Kevin Miller of the Kennebeck Journal:

Hi Sid. Hope your enjoying your day.

Here's some helpful tips for you from Defensive Driving.com on what to do if your brakes fail:
1. Shift into a lower gear.
If you are driving a car with manual transmission, downshift as quickly as you can without losing control of the car. Don’t shift into first or second gear too suddenly; wait until the car has slowed somewhat.
If you’re in a car with automatic transmission, shift down one gear at the time. The first of the low gears is usually labeled “1.”
2. Check to see how your brake pedal feels.
If your brake pedal feels loose, this could indicate a lack of brake pressure. Pump your brake rapidly to build up pressure (do this even if you do have ABS brakes.) Then, once you have built pressure, press down on the brake firmly.
If your brake pedal feels stiff, there could be a blockage. Use your foot to clear possible obstructions from under the brake pedal or have a passenger take a look.

I know you people don't like Matthew 7:12 and Matthew 7:2 (http://stanfordreview.org/arti... ), so I leave you with the 1970's Americana proverb"what goes around comes around" and the fact that Steve Jobs' daughter lived on welfare while he had $26 million even though he was a buddhist and believed in karma. He also regularly parked in the wheelchair parking spaces and on the last day he entered Apple's offices to officially resign as CEO, he had to use a wheelchair. Steve Jobs, dead at 56.

But those are good points, except what if you had a flat? Would your life have been in danger? If there was no shoulder (Maine DOT says [Oops, a minimum of] 2 foot wide shoulders are required
http://www.memun.org/SchoolsPr... ) then the road was unsafe. Perhaps you should mention the road and what area it was in if it was unsafe.
I'm a perv and I've never rushed a car.
Could you have stopped in traffic if you had a flat tire?
Nolo.com says: " A basic rule of the road requires a vehicle to be able to stop safely if traffic is stopped ahead of it. If it cannot stop safely, the driver is not driving as safely as the person in front."
"Signaling When You Slow Down or Stop Unexpectedly: Your brake lights let people know that you are slowing down. If you are going to stop or slow down at a place where another driver doesn’t expect it, tap your brake pedal three or four times quickly."

Way to go for calling 9-1-1 anyway.
Thank you for letting me know about farm laborers not being able to strike until 1975 (where tey could in California anyway). And I think Caesar Chavez and the UFW got Americans to boycott table grapes by informing them of the injustices, instead of striking.
