>speed limit: 55>you are allowed to go 64>if you go 65, just one mph more, you can be pulled over, asked for various documents, and if you cannot furnish them, you will be arrested Is this what our founding fathers intended?
>>28965894Yeah. If you're too fucking dumb to handle 2 pieces of paper you shouldn't be fucking driving let alone speeding while driving.
Speed limits should be enforced with draconian measures. Only then would they be raised to sensible levels.
so many tryhard "engagement" threads here nownewfags think this place is reddit and they get karma for engagement and being poc
>>28965894It's called a speed limit, not a speed suggestion
Just vote for higher speed limits. It's not that complicated, you're able to do this in America. Unlike the third world country OP is from like China
>>28965903I am not trying hard. I finished a long road trip where the speed limits often changed and it's irritating to have to set my speed to be just above the speed limit when people push on you from behind to goad you into going faster and you have to balance going a decent speed with not getting in trouble. America is a bunch of bullshit micro-managed rules designed to get you in trouble over minor things and I hate it. >someone driving dangerouslyok that's a problem>someone going 10 mph over magic numbernot a real problem unless they are also swerving or following too closely etc.
>>28965914the issue is not speed limits, the issue is strict enforcement rather than them just being an advisory guidelinecops should be focused on dangerous drivingthere's a ton of people who drive aggressively, tail people, weave, etc, and most bad driving is not JUST about speeding
>>28965917when you have kids you'll understand, so never.
>>28965900this tbdesu
>>28965900>Governments hate money, actually.
>>28965920Just vote to raise the speed limits and for police to dedicate all speed related resources into cold cases, human trafficking, and domestic abuse. Problem solved. However too many people wanna over complicate it
>>28965894They used to say 5 you’re fine 10 you’re mine now literally everyone does 10 over minimum
if I ran my own country I would abolish speed limits for small cars and strictly enforce them for anything larger than a sedan>but wouldn't this be more dangerous yes, for a few years, until people transition away from their cuckovers
>>28965988what if I encounter muddy dirt roads?
>>28965981I figure +5 is obligatory because muh Founding Fathers and another +5 is common courtesy to the people who are actually in a hurry.
>>28965991if you drive on dirt roads frequently then keep your fat car. it's not like you're going to drive fast on them anyway.
>>28965894>speed limit: 55Holy fuck does this cucked limit still exist?
>>28966003NY and NC are hellholes with mandatory 55 limit unless otherwise specifiedGA is horrible you will have 30 mph work zones on the HIGHWAY where there's NO work being done, it's just miles of speed trap for no reason WV is actually pretty reasonable about limitsPA I wanna say used to have a 55 limit and doesn't anymorePA turnpike is way too narrow and curvy and spooky to go fast on, this was on 15 near gettysburg, there's a bit of 65 but mostly 55 and the left lane is going 75 it's just kinda silly
>>28965894>Is this what our founding fathers intended?Not one single sane person believes that the opinion of a bunch of dudes that have been dead for hundreds of years and would be hopelessly out of place in modern society should have any relevance or bearing on the way the world is run today.
>>28965991lotta speed traps on those roads?
>>28966030that's not my pointhe told me I can only have a sedana crossover is a hatchback with a raised ride height specifically for rough roads and minor water crossings
>>28966033no, he said anything larger than a sedan would have strict speed limits
>>28966037um yeah ok so that would be silly cuz I still need to drive the crossover on highways to get between the dirt roadsand really I don't even like dirt roads, everything should be paved imho, but that's where the pretty views are, so I go
>>28966010Yes they would.
>>28966045>so I goslowly, then
>>28965917I've also noticed, locally, over the years, that there's some spots where all of us locals just say fuck it and do 70 in a 50, or whatever. but how are out-of-towners supposed to know?
>>28965894>speed limit: 55>don't drive the limit>surprised you get pulled over for speeding
>>28966332I've noticed there are small towns where the locals seem to religiously obey speed limits, like the cops have them whipped. >>28966346Would I get pulled over for doing 56 in a 55 zone?
>>28965900More likely they would be lowered further in order to catch more paypigs
>>28965894What is the point of making cares that can go 200 MPH and guzzle fuel if there is a speed limit, set to 5?
>>28966003>Holy fuck does this cucked limit still exist?How is it cucked? Our highway speeds are literally 8 MPH higher than this.
