Hello all:

This evening, I was watching a one-hour show on the Discovery Channel 
featuring police video of pursuits, etc., mostly from the UK, and I was 
wondering why almost all of the British police videos feature the speed of 
the police car in miles per hour rather than kph.  You folks going soft on 
the metric system?

Also, from the helicopter shots, it was easy to see many inner-city streets 
with occasional areas featuring white squiggly lines on both sides of a given 
lane.  What is the significance of these markings?  Mandated slalom zones?
