He is consistent.  He doesn't answer most questions, and many of the
ones that he does answer, he answers with a non sequitur or ad
hominem.

He has the firm belief that speeding is ok, as long as people don't go
above the speed that he thinks is ok, making it a subjective thing,
but he refuses to put any objectivity in it by having a different
standard for cars that are designed with higher limits in mind or
drivers with better training.
