You shouldn’t be driving over 100 mph—and your car shouldn’t let you

But this is a radical idea our country would fight tooth and nail.

the issue is americans are dumb as fukk, incapable of nuance and are obsessed with “ individual liberty” over collective good.

Man, ain’t that the truth. Reduce the sugar or transfats in foods and watch these fattys have a fit (ironically).

“It’s this woke government stopping muh diabetes!”

People are fukking clowns. They don’t even want to control their portions, let alone their speed.

i see you @bnew pushing the cars are ruining our country articles.

But this is a radical idea our country would fight tooth and nail.

the issue is americans are dumb as fukk, incapable of nuance and are obsessed with “ individual liberty” over collective good. The automobile was sold as sn expression of freedom, the american dream, and as a major symbol of american industry. We love cars as much as we love guns. Trying to install much needed limiters would get twisted and radicalized into a treatise on “govt tyranny” and how “ THE GOVT” is coming for your personal rights ss if cars aren’t killing people left and right.

people keep posting the autobahn but dont understand that Germany (and the rest of the europe for thst matter) doesn’t have nearly the concentration of cars that the US has. They walk, bike, taxi, bus, and train everywhere in Europe. So much so that people there have a greater respect for driving, its not something taken for granted or treated with apathy which is what gets people killed.

car lobbyists and the lack of transportation alternatives is demonstrably ruining our country.

People need complete control over their cars, not a governor…
