You don't think my post was accurate, and truthful? You think it's just
fine for idiots to go blasting down the highway endangering the rest of us
because they want to? Is that what you believe, you ignorant ?

Bullshit. Poor attempt at rationalization.

sorry dude, it's not bullshit. you're just so enraged in your argument
with dave, you're not thinking straight.
come to the san francisco bay area. 580 oakland is posted 55. if you
go much slower than 80 outside of rush hour, you'll cause an accident.
it's 4 lanes, bumper to bumper. rush hour is slower - about 35. 280 is
posted 65 and 80 is the rule. if you drive the 15 into las vegas from
l.a. on a friday night, that's posted 65 and prevailing is about 95.
that's bumper to bumper too.

Wrong. I'm not "enraged" about anything. You apparently are, which may
explain your need to speed on the highways. It's called "road rage".

More bullshit. I lived in Alameda for 6 years, and frequently went to
S.F. I also go to Vegas at least 6-8 times a year, and that's just not
the truth. Keep trying to rationalize your speeding, though.

Speeding is not road rage. Some people are quite calm at 10+ over the
limit. Speeding is speeding. Driving angry as a result of something
another driver did or you perceive they did, is road rage.

I can't speak to those roads, but I-80 in NJ, if you're not keeping up with
traffic you are causing a problem.

My living depends on my licence being perfectly clean. It has been for
over twenty five years now, I'm not about to change the way I drive because
of any reasons, political or not.

I agree, for the fools and idiots that can't or won't obey the law and
use common sense.

I'm sorry Jim, but someone obeying the law is not the one responsible
(take note of that word) for causing the collision(s). The ones responsible
for the collision(s) are the people who aren't willing to obey the law.

Nobody said you had to change anything.
And hey, my license is clean too! Now that the seat belt and speeding
charges have finally aged off, that is. ;^)

What difference does it make why the limits were set? If the limits are
bad limits, complain to you elected officials. Or become an elected
official.

I think I smell one of those guys who camp out in the passing lane
self-righteously driving exactly the speed limit, forming a rolling
roadblock for everyone behind them. Used to be a lot of that during the 55
mph days. Less now, but still a few left.
Texas passed a "road-rage" law a few years ago that includes a $200 fine for
camping out in the passing lane. Regardless of your speed, if you are
passed on the right, you have committed the violation. The reason for this:
in some cases the one driving the speed limit was the one responsible for
causing the collision.
