One week in advance, notices will be posted warning the reasonable, rational, and responsible people to stay inside and off the roads for twenty-four hours.
During that time, anything goes on the highways of the nation. No speed limits, no stop lights, and no turn signals required. . . and no traffic laws. Any vehicle in any condition will be allowed, including gravel trucks, Model T Fords, and Sherman tanks.
No doctor, nurse, or other medical personnel will be required to staff any Emergency Room or ambulance. Those who do will draw "hazardous duty" pay.
Free beer will be provided to all participants. All the fools on four wheels will be encouraged to play "chicken" at speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour.
Bulldozers and tanker trucks filled with water and detergent will be prepared to clear the highways of smashed vehicles and bodies and wash down the highways at the end of the Holo-day.*
Simple and inexpensive funerals will be paid for by the grateful taxpayers, who can then look forward to several months on the highways, safe from the dangers of criminal negligence.
*Holo-day: abbreviation for Holocaust on the Highways Day.
