Old Observation Revisited!!!

**Monster** · 10-15-2007, 02:51 AM

Recently, and old observation of mine was renewed, while I was driving to work. Several years back, I came to the conclusion that driving with your mouth open slows you down considerably. During my daily commutes, whenever I came across a slow moving vehicle on the freeway, I noticed that the driver would have his/her mouth open and a dazed look on their face. While regular or fast drivers had their mouths closed. Is this why people talking on cell phones drive so erratic?

Could it actually be that an open mouth would slow down a vehicle? Or is it that a slow brain would lead to the open mouth and slow vehicle.

How could I get a government grant to study this phenomenon further?

is intrigued!!!

I'll help co-write it if you can fund it!

Mouth Breathers!
They drive slow because their brain is already processing as much data as it can! Any faster and their brainware would crash!

I'm thinkin' it's the wind resistance of the gaping maw!

Is it wrong for me to associate an open mouth with low intelligence?

YES!

Now is that anyway for a lady to display herself in public?

Try this!

Now take your facial expression on the road, and let me know of the outcome.

I agree with the lovely lady in the polka dot bikini, Open mouths either cause drag by deflecting air flow over the surface of the face, Or there should be an air hammer made for these people to increase performance and air flow.
