Replying to: larsb (Dec 30, 2008 6:36 am) I do agree that excessive speeding does cause accidents but simply having the police do their jobs resolves this. All you have to do is have a few officers drive on the highway during rush hour. It's amazing how people remember to use their turn signal; move out of the left lane; slow down, etc. |

Replying to: larsb (Dec 30, 2008 2:42 pm) Except that raising the speed limit has not resulted in more fatalities and accidents, and there is no proof that drivers traveling at 75 mph are involved in more accidents, or are more deadly, than drivers who travel at 55 mph. larsb: This is one of the famous "Autobahn" wreck pictures. You think this would have happened at 55 mph? A red herring argument. Most fatalities occur at speeds below 45 mph, and limited access highways, where speeds are the highest, are among our safest roads.

Replying to: grbeck (Jan 06, 2009 10:28 am) Ask a first responder if he would rather assist in a 55 MPH wreck or a 75 MPH wreck. There's your "proof" right there. It's not rocket science - it's common sense.
