It's funny how there are so many road accidents caused by people with this very same attitude. Since it isn't their poor driving that's at fault, obviously, what do suggest is?
- zionic 5y agoI'd argue distracted driving is far more causative than the speed limit. Remember that my 60% claim was someone doing 25 in a 15 in a neighborhood. 15 mph is unreasonably slow in even the worst-case scenario. The real speed-do-not-exceed in my neighborhood is 35MPH, but instead of setting that and enforcing even 1MPH over they set the speed limit to 15 hoping people actually go 25-30. My argument is that this system is stupid and should be reformed.
