Walter Arnold may be the first person convicted of speeding in an automobile, but I am pretty sure that horses and carriages can go faster than 8 mph. I bet there were were some of them convicted before Walter.
Well 32 year old Chen Siyuan from Handan, Hebei Province China can write two languages at once. One with each hand. She can also write with both her hands and feet at the same time too.
Why would the speed limit be 2mph? I am not a particularly fit individual, and am definitely not athletic, but my walking speed is about 4mph. Doing double the speed limit would subject me to speeding tickets just from walking. Heaven forbid I should run or jog.
I had an instructor in physical therapy school that could draw 2 cross sections of the spinal canal, 1 with each hand at the same time. He was legally blind.
Maybe Colin Darke spend a lot of childhoof time with an Etch-A-Sketch, which is rather difficult to master and requires 2 hands working in simultaneously but not in tandem.

Hey, Arnold! Need three American cents to pay for that speeding ticket?

I can’t even draw with one hand. Let alone two at the same time.

If you drive 8 mph anywhere today, you’re going to get a lot more than a ticket.

People thought that if you went 100mph you would die. In actuality it is the sudden stop against a big object that kills you!!

Everyone can draw with both hands at the same time; but it will probably be a sh****y drawing.

Anybody with two hands can draw with them both. Not so good, but still.

I appreciate progress. I’d have been ticketed going to the bathroom at 3 A.M.
So that is New Zealand’s secret method of ‘herd immunity’.

The first car speedometer was invented 123 years ago, so how did they know it was going 8 mph?

Do Colin’s eyes each look at one hand’s work? Or they rapidly shift back and forth?
