Dyer Consequences: Welcome To Italy, Unless You're A Speeder - Latest News, Reviews, and Editorial Columns - Automobile Magazine
Italy is no longer a place to drive fast.

Regular readers will recall our "Viva Italia" issue, released five months ago and packed chock-full of stories about Italy and Italian cars. For that issue, I was supposed to go to Italy and do something with a Ferrari, but within hours of my departure I had a bit of a personal situation. Long story short, you can tell your wife that there's a very slim chance of a baby being born a month early, but that won't prevent a baby from arriving a month early and royally derailing your plan to drive a Ferrari in Italy. When he's old enough, I plan to sit the boy down and give him a lecture about excessive punctuality.
