Incredible stuff that the regulators are so absent or neutered that such a feature could get shipped.

- CamperBob2 1y agoThese would be the same omniscient, benevolent regulators who intentionally set speed limits well beneath the 85th-percentile rule where highway safety is optimized? (Well, no, those would be different regulators entirely, but still...) Speed limits aren't about being able to stop everybody, they're about being able to stop anybody. If nobody exceeded the speed limit, then rest assured, it would be lowered further.
- Zigurd 1y agoThe answer is right in the text of your question: the 85% rule of thumb is for highways. If it makes you feel better I've seen a proposal to offer a discount on speeding tickets in Texas if you pay with bitcoin. No, actually, I made that up. It's funny because it's so very plausible.
