nicely put,but i think we as a whole should let the police know how much this bothers us,and we as a group should do something about speeders.

It's not so much Speeding, as Stupidity and Driver Distraction.The Autobahn in Germany is Proof. The Accident Rate is among the Lowest in the World. The Rules and Regulations are very Strictly Enforced, and Driver's Education is taken very Seriously. There are Cameras and Police everywhere. Zero Alcohol Tolerance. No Smoking , Cell Phones, or Eating is allowed while Driving.But, there are many Sections with no Speed Limit whatsoever.And it's such Fun ! An extremely Slow, inattentive Driver in the Presence of those doing the Speed Limit is also a major cause of Vehicle Accidents. Thankfully, North Carolina is now Charging Drivers for going too Slow, and Impeding Traffic.But, to Re-Enforce Your most Valid Point, Driving at 60 MPH, One will Travel One Mile in One Minute. At 120 MPH, that Time will be Reduced by 30 Seconds.Now, is 30 Seconds worth Gambling One's Life ? No, not really.The "Proof" is that there is a Certain Adrenalin "Rush" that happens at 120 + MPH that's Hard to Describe, when One's Peripheral Vision of the Surrounding Area changes, and One's Stomach seems to Rise to One's Throat. It's sort of like the Feeling of Taking Off in an Airplane. It's a Total Rush ! I don't do it anymore, and I've never caused an Accident. But it was a lot of Fun ! But, Driver Inattention is really the Leading Cause of Accidents. I have lost many Friends in Auto Accidents as well, so I Know where You're coming from.

There are many people who are habitual speeders. I ride a motorcycle and it can take off much quicker than most cars. I will do that to get some space between myself and the traffic behind. Even though I will be quite far ahead of the cars from the last traffic light, they will be steadily catching up to me because I am going the speed limit. It happens everytime I go for a ride so it is more than just a few people.
BUT, worse than the speeders are those who do not watch their surroundings. I have been sitting at a red light on a four lane road and had a car go right past me into the intersection barely missing a car going through on green. What did she think I was sitting there for? People on cell phones think they can multi task while driving but there was a women killed in a head on crash because she was trying to look up a number on her phone and went off into the wrong side of the road. I had a person talking on the phone roll up to a four way stop sign pretty fast which gave me the notion he had no intention of stopping since he had to slam on the brakes when he realized I was beginning to pull away. There are more people killed on our nations highways every year then are killed in wars but do you hear people insisting on safer driving?
Only just now with this question!
Put away the phones and the maps and the makeup and the shavers and WATCH WHERE YOU ARE GOING.
If you kill someone with your car while being negligent it can be called manslaughter and it could get you five years in prison.
I'll be watching you!!!

ive wondered that for the reason that i began driving. some causes ive arise with through the years: -they dont like human beings driving quick and do what they could to sluggish em down. in the experience that they only realized the futility of this action. theyre no longer omnipresent. -they arent sturdy sufficient drivers or r only too lazy to cope with merging site visitors. -they prefer to stress w the cruise administration on n see you later as theyre the slowest motor vehicle of their lane, they wont ought to reveal it off n hit reset. to the superb 2 i say its a shame all persons ought to wade through for the few, yet they r the varieties that arent ever gonna care about the subsequent man or woman. -they r huge a h's who derive exhilaration from others discomfort. thats why i by no skill enable the guy going sluggish in the front of me keep in mind that it bothers me. no matter if driving on a unmarried lane or multilane highway. they aint gonna flow any swifter besides. - they prefer to work out each and each of the human beings behind them at the same time as practically noones in the front of them. i wager it makes em sense like a chief. or that theyre controlling the challenge. how unhappy that they have got such little genuine administration of their lives. -in my state its a regulation to shop perfect except to bypass. such extremely some imagine rushing is breaking an important regulation yet this regulation isnt. they could opt for the guidelines anybody has to obey. -the worst is at the same time as theyre going like 5 mph swifter than the speed decrease yet nevertheless slower then the site visitors to their perfect. i turned right into a passenger in a motor vehicle being pushed through a lady doing this. i requested her why, n she suggested 5 mph over changed into quick sufficient. i talked about that she changed into breaking the regulation, and changed into pleased with anybody else breaking the regulation, only see you later because it changed into interior her perameters. like its her position to assert to anybody, "you could speed, yet only as a lot as i say". to her credit she said my aspect and agreed w me, n as far as i understand doesnt stress like that any extra.
