The National Motorists Association



The NMA is the only organization in all of North America working to stop 
the 
exploitation of motorists. 
     
We're committed to representing your interests as a motorist.  We lobby, 

debate, and editorialize constantly on your behalf.  We support higher, 
more 
reasonable speed limits, better driver training, improved motorist-to- 
motorist courtesy, and sensible, easily understood regulations. 
     
In our campaign against enforcement for profit, we expose speed traps and 

help our members fight speeding tickets. 
     
And, we're promoting federal legislation that will eliminate the absurd 
55 
mph National Maximum Speed Limit.   In fact, we're the ones that 
legalized 65 mph Interstates in '87 and are pushing the present NMSL 
repeal.
     
That doesn't mean that we overlook tangible benefits for our individual 
members.  The National Motorists Association offers you a full and 
growing 
range of valuable benefits and services: 
     
     NMA NEWS.  The most informative newsletter published on the subjects 
of 
               traffic laws, motorist issues, and your rights as a driver.
 
     
               Learn the location of speed traps, the truth about radar, 
new 
               emissions standards, DWI laws, and traffic enforcement.  
Read 
               personal accounts of fellow members who have bucked the 
               system and won! 
          
               "I was prepared to argue my case, no holds barred. 
               The trooper didn't show!  I won by default but if 
               it wasn't for the NMA I wouldn't have even tried." 
     
     LEGAL RESOURCE KIT.  Represent yourself in traffic court and win!  
               Access to this nine-pound package of knowledge is not 
               available from any other source.  In addition to covering 

               court procedures and strategy, the kit includes technical 

               information on almost all speed enforcement devices.  
Anyone 
               who digests half the material in this kit will know more  

               about fighting traffic tickets than 90% of the country's 
               attorneys. 
     
     ATTORNEY REFERRAL SERVICE.  A FREE nationwide attorney referral 
system, 
               should you choose to hire a lawyer to represent you in a

     TRAFFIC JUSTICE PROGRAM.  The NMA's Traffic Justice Program is 
intended 
               to encourage you to fight unjust speeding tickets.  If, as 
a 
               continuing member after one year of membership, you 
receive a 
               speeding ticket, plead not guilty, but lose in court, NMA 

               will pay your fine.   
 
               "Knowing the NMA would back me and pay the fine 
               if I lost my case, made it possible for me to 
               fight and beat this bogus ticket." 
     
     SPECIAL ALERTS.   Special Alerts warn you when there is legislation 
or 
               a regulation being considered that affects you or your  
               automobile.

     MEMBERSHIP RECOGNITION.  You receive a personal membership card, an 
NMA 
               decal for your car, access to a no-annual-fee charge card, 
a 
               no-fee long-distance calling card, and an introductory 
               brochure on the Seven Sensible Signals, NMA's national 
system 
               of driver-to-driver communication. 
 
               "Just thought you guys would like to know, the 
               signals really work! We've got to spread the 
               word." 
     
And, we'll send you a FREE copy of the NMA's Motorist's Guide to State 
and 
Provincial Traffic Laws.  This $11.95 value includes traffic laws and 
regulations for all states and provinces.  Additionally, you'll find a 
list 
of speed traps.   
 
      "Without a doubt, this is the most useful book that's 
      passed our desk in years."  Motor Trend, July 1994. 
     
The lion's share of our time and money is used to lobby and campaign on 
your 
behalf as a driver, enthusiast, collector, highway user, and taxpayer.  
We're fighting for higher, more reasonable speed limits, the end of speed 

trap revenue mills, and the establishment of traffic laws based on 
engineering principles and public consensus. 
     
Over twelve years ago, we realized that the American motorist was on the 

road to being taxed, regulated, and fined into oblivion.  The only real 
option was to form a national organization of determined and informed 
motorists.  People like you. This organization fights on your behalf, for 

fairer treatment, of drivers and automobiles. 
    
Either we join together and fight for our rights or we endure outrageous 

taxation and suffocating regulation.  More importantly, we will lose the 

tremendous freedom and individual mobility that you and I take for 
granted. 
     
We need you.  If driving and automobiles are important to you, you need 
the 
National Motorists Association.  Please join today. 
     
          Thank you. 
     
                                   Sincerely, 
     
                                   James J. Baxter 
                                   President
