far left lane
stay to the right as much as possible. leave the far left lane as a
passing lane. go w/ the flow of traffic. be aware of your surroundings.
be speed racer and stand out from the pack, you get a ticket. whine about
something else.

to get the change they wanted there would have to be personal
inconveniences. your tearjerking "what if" examples would be the normal
sacrifices of any kind of revolution.
think of all the tickets that could be spared the pen because the current
listed speed limit is obviously unsafe. and with the money saved on fines
the driver could buy a watch and leave his house with enough time to allow
him to get to his job interview on time without having to break the law.
for once in his life.

if you take the autobahn for example, there is technically no speed limit
and there has been very few deaths on that road, because of the fact you
can go at such great speeds. Also while speeding you have a tendency to
concentrate more on your driving and the handling of your car. The only
reason why you see fatal accidents with over the limit speeds, is because
the people who are doing the speed limit and are multi-tasking or just
feel more realxed because of going slower or the speed limit dont have as
much concentration on the road...example a person all the way in the left
lane doing the speed limit, when it is considered the "fast lane".... i
mean there is a reseaon why they call it that, is there a fast and a slow
65 mph? cause xxxx i need to take the test again...if someone is in the
left lane and you see that he is coming up behind fast, you move over to
the "slower" lane... not a hard concept...when you stay in the left lane
being an ass and saying "well xxxx it, he shouldnt be going that fast
anyways" you actually cause that person to change lanes a lot and cause a
higher risk of accidents....to sum it up, people need to have courtesy on
the road...its that simple...and to make one more thing clear i am talking
about people who do 10 sometimes 15 over...i cant say so for myself..haha

Check your facts...
Some of you people are loons! Especially the person who said - what if
this stunt made someone late for a meeting or lost them a client etc -
NUTTER! We ALL carry out acts EVERY DAY that affect EVERYONE around
us!!!! Attributing this one act to the downfall of people lives is
madness!
Secondly, driving at a moderate speed is MORE fuel efficient than speeding
along at 80+. By driving at the speed limit and breaking in time and not
racing away at the lights I have increased my fuel efficiency by at least
25%. Carbon foot print that - Fool!

@Rue
One other thing you must also take into consideration: It costs roughly
$1000 to get your license, speeding tickets must be paid in a week of you
loose your license, if youre pulled over and you blow a BAC of .03 or
higher, you lose your license. And its gone for a long-ass time. Drivers
Ed in Germany lasts months, ending with not only a meticulous driving test
but a test that is about 1000 questions long. And, drivers in Germany are
required to carry emergency kits in their trunks for anything from a flat
tire to a medical emergency. Accidents involving pedestrians are entirely
the fault of the driver, no matter what the circumstance. They dont want
to lose their licenses. That is why there are so few wrecks in Germany.

see to all you numbnuts that cant listen, the reason why they are doing
this is to go against the state, by showing them how rediculously slow
traffic would be if they DID do the speed limit...LISTEN!!! its not a hard
concept...haha
