(A) Sand, at high speeds, can take paint off by putting pits in
    someone's paint job. You have a liability issue.

(C) Why not just following the international standard, which is to
    pass expediously, and follow the U.S. and international standard,
    which is to keep to the right, except when actually passing?

(C) The environmentalists will think of some reason that sand should
    not be ejected like that.
