It's about balance. I know, it's not exactly what you think you deserve; therefore it's wrong.
"driving too fast for conditions" most people aren't trained to know what is too fast for conditions.
The number 1 cause of accidents is not paying attention, and human drivers are NEVER paying attention n to everything all the time, and it gets worse the longer the travel at a consistent speed down ad familiar road.
"think of the lives that are lost because drivers fall asleep because they are bored" A) people get bored at any speed B) 55 means more reaction time when an event happens.
" Lord forbid we actually have some fun" yes, driving an a road at a high rate of speed subject to more variables and putting other people lives at risk is you right to fun.
If it's a passing lane, it will be labeled 'Passing Lane', or the road will be labeled 'Slower traffic keep right'. BTW slower traffic means traffic slower then what is safe, not someone who happens to be slower then you.
And if I am going at the same speed as the car in the number 2 lane, then there isn't really room to move into the number 2 lane, fucktwat.
If the number 2 lane is clear? yeah I'll move over. If there is a line of cars in front of me? then clearly there is traffic. SO I'm not going to get out of your way, you egotistical SOB.
If I am going faster then the number 2 lane? no, I'm not going to slow down and changes lane to accommodate you over compensation for your tiny penis.
Thinking the whole road is for you to drive however you want make YOU the selfish one, dumb ass.
The VAST majority od states say to get out of the number 1 lane if you are doing LESS then the speed limit. NOT slower then some maniac.
Yeha, you're a rell internet tough guy, I'm just shaking in my shoes here.
The speed limit on the autobahn as been added to more and more of it over the years. Plus there are speed limits for certain vehicles on all of it. Also, the more safety aspects they add, including more speed limits, the fewer fatalities there have been. in 2010 is was down 70% compared to 1990. And it was a trend, not a statistical aberration.
Besides that, talking about the Autobahn when comparing speed limits and safety in the US isn't really comparable.
Let me know when we in the US have to keep a maintenance log, get pulled of for driving speed are tires aren't rated for, and need to take a min. 2 days a week, 7 week training course.
Learn the difference betweem Kph and Mph. Most traffice is 120 Kph. (93MPH)
" The speed-limitless highway" False. Some parts of it dn't have a speed limit, but most of it does. In fact, for some types of vehicles it does have a max speed..
The parts with no speed limit, SOME cars will go to 300Kph(186 mph). HOWEVER with the exception of a few top end sports cars, German cars have a limiter at 150kph. granted it can be removed.
Tires must be regulated for the speed, and there are strict anti coercion laws.
During the last 15 years, the autobahn has more speed limits, and stricter safety rules and the fatalities have been cut by 2/3rds.
At the very least, go to wikepedia. It's almost always more accurate then ehow, and there will be several citation there you can follow up on.
"No one is at fault for this " the driver driving the high rate of speed is at fault. And lane system like that would means a lot more people accelerating and deceleration, making it less consistent. consistency is very important when talking about safety.
". It's the car going 35 MPH+ one way that encounters another car going 35 " wow, you ass must be pretty empty after pulling all of this out of it.
You discount the same thing everyone discounts. YOU are not the only person on the road. That means you are depending on every one else to be able to be alert enough to be safe, and fast enough reflexes to begin to correct for a situation, AND the knowledge of how to do that at that speed.
If you are going 64, it have a slight period longer to correct for the on comming pylon.
Yes, it's divided and that is safer. Presumable it is built with materials, and engineered with 100MPH in mind. SO some variable have been limited
The other point is people regularly drive over the speed limit, regardless of the speed. SO when you are doibng 85, some a hole is doing 120. Drive at 120 is different the 65 and 85. Wind and air pressure at 120 can cause you to lose control.
"of my classmates at MIT would be diagnosed with Asperger's today. " Probably not, but hey lets not let science govern our opinion, lets just slap an incorrect public view of things, cause that will work out.
"It is trolling. Trolls want to hear you tell them how inhumane and malicious they are. You don't buy from spammers and you don't feed the trolls." False. People are reading it, and peope buy into it so it needs to be addressed. Not for the troll, but for the other readers.
"I have come to call this "academic Top Trumps". He pointed out that they are more qualified then the poster probably is; which is a safe bet. He also pointed out that you can get the information for yourself. So no Appeal to Authority.

"but the problem is not necessarily "misinterpretation"." It almost always is.
I watch and help my daughter deal with autism. You have no idea what it's like to have a daughter who is kind, smart, and wants to be friends with her peer. But her peers always misinterpret her and shy way from her. A lonely 12 year old is a very sad thing to watch.

you need to define terms before I can even pick one.

OF coutrse, you will need to buy it and tested it for yourself since you dismiss what other people who've tested say.
All the data gets loose from the drive, that's why you lose it.

and then...?
"a laptop with only partially-functioning WiFi and reduced battery life due to a poor graphics driver (as I do now)."
then why are you using it?

You want to drive fast? Go to a speed way.
Don't come back.
the vaster you go, the more likely variable outside your control will severally impact your day.

Thanks genius you dded a fact to the conversation that, while technically correct*, it doesn't help in any real way what so ever.
*the best kind of correct.
yes, pressure drivers to drive at speed they aren't comfortable at will fix everything~
Of course, pollution would skyrocket.
"users always seem to be the cause of congestion? "
because of your bias.
Texting us in cars goes through the roof,yet accidents and fatalities from accident continue to go down. Yeah, texting a real problem.
Nothing says fact like eHow~

Nice.
depends and the class of the ticket.
And you insurance won't go up, you'll just lose your safe driving discount. heh.
it's not darwinism, it's evolution.
And stop assuming the driving reckless if a genetic mutation that removing a person from the gene pool fixes.
Driving fast does increase fatalities.

That's why they are pre med. In fact, they probably tried to diagnose everyone with something.
Just like a yellow belt wants everyone to grab their wrist.
The article isn't a study, and the 'improvement' ir parental observation; which is always horrible.
