I second you on your suggestion on the missle, could get a bit messy
with all the burned out hulks on the freeways. My idea is to come up
with some sort of EMP generator that you could aim at any idiots who
either drive to slow, or too fast, and disable their electronic ignition
so they would have to pull over til things quieted down. And as a bonus,
you could pull up behind the kid with the slammed Mazda p'up, with the
dancing bed hydraulics, and the 20,000 watt stereo that plays the
gangsta rap, nail him too and shut him up  for a spell. Somehow, I don't
think that the Patent Office would entertain me on this one.
