Over 20 years ago, singer Sammy Hagar released a highly controverisal (but really "kick-butt") song called "I Can't Drive 55". The video to this song was a pretty big hit on MTV (back when they were truly Music Television).
Well... according to four (4) Georgia college students, you can... and in an act of self-proclaimed "civil obedience", they got in their respective vehicles and together, they actually did literally drive 55 MPH on I-285.
But wait, folks, there's more... they even filmed themselves doing so and won a film award for their efforts. Please click here for their movie "A Meditation On The Speed Limit".
Naturally, they made several folks really angry and frustrated while doing so, but hey, like the late Andy Warhol said, they got their proverbial "15 minutes of fame".
