i feel the same way every time i get a ticket. i mean seriously the speeds are supposed to be maximum safe speeds, not a way for cities to make money. mind you this isnt the maximum speed in bad conditions, they are suposed to be the maximum safe speed in normal conditions, if conditions are bad you are supposed to go slower than the posted limit. i dont think grandma in a pt cruiser would have any problem going faster than the 25 and 35mph limits though some speed zones. so we should have a way to call out cities on the speed limits as nothing more than a speed trap and get them changed and drivers reimbursed.


that and i think we should have the laws on driving licenses that finland has! it takes them 3 years to get one but u actually have to drive on skid pads and be able to control a car in a slid among other things to get one. this is much better than what most stats do where u cant have any teenage passengers till you are 18? how does that make better since than actually making you a good driver?

just don't speed in my neighborhood. Too many kids, bikes, and skateboarders.

But on an open road, SCCA licenses should apply.

of course i wouldn't speed in ur neighborhood, nor would i suggest the speed limit be raised.

in my neighborhood.. deaf children playing signs.. kids everywhere.. elderly with power wheel chiars an walkers.. joggers... doesn't stop these direspectful people... i've had pickups cuss an honk behind me and pass me.... ladies in SUV's screaming up behind me and see them in the rear view flipping me off.. so, seeing a professional doing this.. is oh so impressive...

the point is if we had finish style license tests then none of those people would be on the road cuz they would never pass... which would also clear the roads up and increase public transportation creating more jobs and lessening our pollution as a country.

so if you are against finish drivers licenses then you are against creating jobs making you anti american...
