Default Top Irish Security Measure Compromised

What you just witnessed was the very latest Irish anti-bomb-under-the-car security check

A police spokesman said it was too early to say if the device would be effective as problems had occurred during the testing programme where there were a number of fatal casualties.

Assuming that was the way in also why did it not have a problem coming in, something should have scraped even then.

The US roads I have driven are much worse than ours!

Anywhere that gets the freeze thaw suffers terribly...add to that the damage the snow ploughs do.

Maybe they don't have suspension wrecking speed bumps in the States so the Cadillac was not designed for them.

The car is actually based on a GM truck/SUV hybrid - same chassis as a GMC Topkick which is Ironhide in Transformers.

Maybe if he'd been in Ironhide, he could have transformed and stepped over it

Love the crowd - sounds like Wimbledon

The longer the wheelbase of the car the more likely it is that the middle will ground on a speedbump, and that is a very long Cadillac.
