Understood, however, Peter suggested wanting special markings on the
outside of the car. Why? And why single out cars with performance
modifications? I have Porterfield brake pads, why would I need to warn
other drivers, yet the car with worn-out brakes travels invisibly?

This is kind of a dumb offshoot of a mostly obvious thread, I don't know
why I am even bothering to participate, but I would like to hear from
Peter what his thoughts were.

Cheerful regards,

Bob
