The arrogance of power

N.J. Gov.'s SUV Went 91 Mph Before Crash:
"TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - The SUV carrying Gov. Jon S. Corzine was traveling about 91 mph moments before it crashed, Superintendent of State Police Col. Rick Fuentes said Tuesday."

I truly wish Gov. John Corzine (D-NJ) a full and speedy recovery. But one has to ask why the governor was riding in the front seat, why he was not wearing his seatbelt, and why his state police driver was going over 90 miles per hour (over 25 mph over the posted limit) with his emergency lightss flashing? I guess the whole world is supposed to get out of the way when royalty is in a hurry.
