[QUOTE="Makobra, post: 16409680, member: 193575"] Montana had HALF the traffic fatalities before their speed limits in the context of the data. they added the limits and the next year they had the same numbers as everyone else so the repealed them deaths went back down so some asshole added them back deaths went back up it doesn't get more cut and dry than this. as humans we like structure but its pretty easy to overload our cognitive faculties. so if you load someone up with tons and tons of rules that carry fines and penalties they will HAPPILY be discourteous if it means not getting in trouble. people making traffic ordinances don't know enough about people or driving to be doing it and that isn't even touching on the fact that we use the same idiotic logic we've been using for decades. cars are space ships compared to what they were just thirty years ago but we still pretend like 100mph is fast. sure maybe if you have a 94 ford ranger making 100hp when it rolled off the assembly line 26 years ago. i could rant forever about this but you get the idea. we have too many rules. we've traded liberty for safety and its not going to change without something really terrible happening.
