Re: Death in the Pursuit of Revenue
If you believe that speed limits are picked solely for revenue purposes, then why not make the speed limit on the interstate 25mph. Then the cops could write tickets to people for going 50mph over the speed limit. If engineering isn't used, then why not make a residential street with a 75mph speed limit. Maybe you should take a second to think logically about that. And if you think that we should have an autobahn in the states, then maybe we should have a similar licensure program to other countries. I would much rather ride next to a German driver on the highway than an American. All it takes in the states is a 2 hour wait at the DMV to get a license. Hell, theyve practically made it impossible to fail a drivers test so that we dont "discriminate" against people who cant parallel park. When it takes more than a year of training for an adult to get a license in the states, then you can talk about not having speed limits on the highway.
