    Isn't it rather that goldwings warp to accommodate a straight
    beam of light?

    Question for Dodger I reckon. Give him a piece of paper and a pencil, I'm
    sure he could work out the Lorenz transformation whilst riding the 'Wing
    at warp factor 7.

    Perhaps the wiser question would be would a wing *rider* go through a Smart Car.

    Cars, usually. The bigger the car, the fatter the tyres and the drier the
    road then the car will stop quicker. It's a simple law of physics that you
    can't fall off a car. Unless of course you're really stupid and leave the
    door open or really drunk and fall off of the roof.

    They did some crash tests on Fifth Gear, and the Smart car was
    surprisingly tough.
