A 45 mph speed limit would save 40,000 lives annually.
>>28679083Motorcycles Exist
>>28679083Get on the short bus, pussy
>>28679083we don't need to save them
>>28679083banning cars entirely would save even more. fuck, imagine how many lives could be saved if we just banned going outside entirely?
unfortunately there are over 1.5 million L32 Altimas alone
>>28679083Remove them entirely and let god sort it out
>>28679083Or, just agree for work from home. Just imagine, 50% reduction in commute.
>>28679083Not letting normies drive at all would save infinity lives
If that was true why did the traffic safety committee directly claim that speed limits have no influence on pedestrian safety?
>>28679083Imagine an op that doesn't suck cocks.
>>28679083Why not 30mph? Are you some sort of murderer?
>>28679083Removing Brown people from the roads would save a 5,000,000 lives annually.
>>28679083I would immediately kms myself if I had to drive sub-50mph everywhereHave you factored that into your statistics?
>>28679083Increase speed limit to 100. We're overpopulated anyway.
>>28679083Hell yea. I could watch so many tiktoks on my commute.
speed limits get so slow that the driver becomes disengaged
speed limits in my city are 30 km/h too slow to compensate for the lowest common denominator, and to ensure that everyone is ""speeding"" so the $peed cameras can make money.
>speed killsspeed only determines the severity of an impact if there is an impact. but if you can avoid the impact then speed is irrelevant.
>>28679083The main highway through my small city has a 45 limit despite looking and feeling like a freeway (albeit with only 2 lanes each way), because there are still a couple of entrance/exists without real on/off ramps. Virtually nobody follows it, 55-60 in the slow lane and 75+ in the fast lane is standard, and we have a shitload of huge catastrophic fatal accidents on it as a result, actually worse than a typical 65 limit freeway because of the speed differentials between people following the limit and ones who aren't, and because it's not really designed to be safe at higher speeds.
we have the technology to make cars speed limited based on GPS location but (((they))) won't do it because they won't make any money from 4peed cameras
>cars keep getting safer>speed limits keep getting slowerdoes not compute

>>28679640Most state highways are like this in the Northeast, like 55mph speed limits and people going 70+. I took my Honda Grom on the CT-8 highway in Connecticut expecting it to be fine and I kept getting passed at 60 was pretty fucking disappointing.
>>28679083Just deport all the browns there would be half the traffic, 90% less in cities.
>>28679083... at the cost of 400,000 being late for something.
the govt could declare a 3 day work week starting at noon every day and you retards would STILL be late.
>>28679083Better designed roads = higher speed limitsHigher speed limits = better traffic flow Better traffic flow = less accidentsBUTBetter designed roads = higher maintenance and building costsAlso American drivers suck because nobody can agree on how to drive and some teach themselves. In Germany you have to go to a certified traffic school, it's a lot of money and a lot of effort.
>>28679841>Also American drivers suck because nobody can agree on how to drive and some teach themselves. In Germany you have to go to a certified traffic school, it's a lot of money and a lot of effort.The standard cannot be raised for American drivers because of how car-dependent they are. It must be issued to as many people as possible and the test reflects the average, which isn't great.With that said, millions of miles are driven without incident. There are those who are responsible for the majority of wrecks and they are well known. Even if you stripped them of a license, they would drive illegally anyways.
>>28679083>hawaii has 109 traffic fatalities as of october 19 2025 with an average speed limit of <35mph
>>28679096If we kill 8 billion people, the death statistic will be pretty bad for a year but it'll be the best in centuries the next one
>>28679994>With that said, millions of miles are driven without incident.this is what is most amazing to methe only people who crash their cars are usually impaired, have a mechanical issue, or are otherwise distracted, there aren't a whole lot of genuinely dangerous, irresponsible people who shouldn't be driving. even the average clapped out altima owner is a superior motorist compared to the worst of europe.
>>28679083Fuck you and fuck your longhouse nanny state "everyone must be protected from danger at all times" bullshit. This female mindset of "oh no someone could get hurt or die, that hurts my feewings" is strangling us as a species.now fuck off back to /n/ before I track you down and rape you with a cactus
>>28680230The highest speed limit in Hawaii is 45mph
>>28679083In the USA? jfc anon no
>>28679083Having you retards meet some requirements before giving you a drivers license would save many more.
>>28679083low speed limits are communist and brown codedIn a proper world there wouldn't be any
>>28679083>Already overpopulated by more than ten times what we can sustain without factory farms>9/10ths of the car fatalities are beaners and jeets anywayWhy do you want to ruin everyone's fun just to save the trash people, Anon? Let them die, its natural selection.
seems like bullshit. no speed limit on kraut autobahn and yet…
>>28680609Kraut Rally Legend Walter Röhrl said in an interview that he considers anything below 150km/h (93mp/h) on highways very dangerous because even his experienced ass would constantly lose focus out of boredom.
>>28680230We should try 25
>>28679083The lives that this would save are not the lives that need to be saved. In fact I would probably argue that these are the lives we need to eliminate for the good of all, though I haven't seen all the relative data.To clarify, not only am I a supporter of Natural Selection, I've seen so much retarded trash propped up by the government for so long I'm now willing to entertain straight up eugenics. Something like a $1000 reward for sterilizing yourself, available to all, would pay MASSIVE dividends in 20 year's time.
>>28680692>$1000 one timefuck off you cheap kike$15,000 a year minimum
>>28679812This is the Northwest, but yeah, it fucking sucks on a slow bike. I ride a KLX300 that'll barely do 70 and isn't much fun at that speed. What makes it really suck too is that the highways are the only roads out of town in most directions and they narrow down to a single lane with people still doing 75+, and on top of that people seem to think motorcycle=fast so they won't even pass you when there's an opportunity and then will tailgate for miles until the next passing lane.
>>28679083Isn't that suboptimal for fuel efficiency?How many lives must be lost to Climate Change just because you're afraid of high speeds?
>>28679255This
reducing deaths would be bad for the environment though
>>28679083True dat>*gets in 10000 pound hummer ev and drives 45mph"
>>28679640sounds like the 110 parkway in L.A.
>>28679835because a person's work day begins when they wake up
>>28679750Sure hope this is bait...
>>28681497Nope it's math
police don’t even patrol roads or highways where i’m at so the speed limit is completely irrelevant and you could set it to 5 for all I care
>>28679841>muh deutch drivers Meme, the retards y'all been putting on roads in the last 5 years or so is laughable. Germany is falling.
>>28681814That's not math
>>28679083There are too many people on this planet. If anything, we need to raise the speed limit.
>>28679646wutits the automobile industry lobbying againt reducing speed limits because how else are you going to find buyers for a 600 horsepower pigfat extreme bismillah mashallah wallah X7 SUV touring coupe sporster capable of travelling at 180mph all day long in silence minus the creaky dogshit chink interior plastics if there isn't a single road in existence that would allow you to travel faster than 60?if it wasn't for ADAC and industry lobbyist the "no speed limit zone" on german autobahns would have been eradicated decades ago becuse beemer audi and mercedes know that "going fast" is a selling point of their products which is especially important where more and more drivers in germany are brownoids
>>28679663>>28681497>>28681884Can you explain in your own words how exactly does the introduction of 6 more stages of crumpling and 12 more airbags at the cost of adding 1500 extra pounds to the kerb weight make the car safer for people outside of it to warrant an increase in speed limits?
>>28679841Americans have less than a .1% accident rate, when you realize over 80% of the pop drives everyday for at least 30 mins
>>28681491The part north of Downtown, going up to Pasadena? I always found that a crazy section of highway, was only on it a few times in 20 years of driving in the area and it always felt super un-LA to me, reminded me of the Bay Area or somewhere on the East Coast. Fun in a sporty car with no traffic, not so much the last time I was on it, exhausted and headed home to the SFV from an Anime Expo party at like 3AM only to discover that both the 101 North and 5 North were closed and I had to go all the way around on the 110 to the 210/134.
>>28681958these things can be mandated>>28681960>make the car safer for people outside of itthose people should stay off the road and walk on the sidewalk
>>28682338>those people should stay off the road and walk on the sidewalkand people should pay attention to the road and stop speedingare you genuinely retarded or just pretending?
>>28682338>those people should stay off the road and walk on the sidewalkWhich one?
>>28682374>>28682374>Which one?the one in the 1st world country that can afford concrete pavements
>>28682371if you're standing on the sidewalk and i drive past you then what difference does my speed make. the key issue is that i drove passed you and not into you. if you stay off the road then you won't get run over. this is something that five year olds understand.
>>28682371>stop speedingspeed limits keep getting slower so yesterday's safe speed is today's speeding
>>28679083Better judgment on the part of drivers would save a whole lot more. I drive pretty much according to conditions & setting, which can be anything from 20 to 90, It's one thing to drive beside an elementary school in a small compact town, quite another to be on a rural interstate, paved at massive Federal expense, smooth and broad enough to land jets on it for 10 miles where one almost never ever sees anyone out in the open.
>>28682445Some cops understand this principle. One of my brothers-in-law was pulled over going 95 in a 55 and the county trooper let him without a citation, and told him to keep it on the ground.
>>28682404are you retarded?
>>28682563yes, and yet i'm smarter than you. so, hmm..
>>28682404point taken, no i will not stop taking naps in the middle of the interstate
>>28679384>>28679083these kinds of reasoning will ultimately kill being able to drive your own car. you will have to have a self-driving car that you can't operate.
