^Omg, so true. Its 55 on a four line highway! Screw that! *pull into the fastlane and pass everyone at 80*

 

I was just driving a regular street today and went to pass someone in the next lane went the street started going up a hill. I just gave it like 1/2-2/3 throttle for a few seconds and looked down at I was going 101mph and still going up. Ive gone a lot faster on a street close by but it sure is shocking when you expect 75-85mph. And I just saw a cop pull someone over 2 miles back. I need a radar detector.

 

I wish speed limits were higher, but there are soooo many shi++y driver on cell phones and such.

 

Higher, realistic speed limits would *force* people to pay attention.

 

Thats because here in CA if you pull into the fast lane and slow down to around 40-45 MPH. It's OK to talk on the phone while you drive.

These are the people who kill me!

 

wow i hope u could recognize the g after a crash like that !

 

i wasnt bragging, i simply wanted to see how well the car handled by others account. I had stock horenza's on the g and the car was considerably louder going that fast. The steering was rock stable and almost felt stiffer. I dont know if the g has speed sensitive steering? Also was not aware windows and roof close on their own

 

its the new driving machine and coming from a corolla, i need to speed!

 

true 'dat. +1. i come from a 1.8L I4 92 eclipse...it was my baby ever since before i had me license! cute, got around, nice pickup but NOTHING like my G!!!

 

Indeed relalistic speed limits would force people to pay more attention. in Germany, they train people to drive at higher speeds, and yet, they still have less crashs there than we have per year.

Its just dumb. 55 on a four lane highway. only Liberals in Toyota Prius's will go that slow.

People would get no where if the speed limits were that slow.

Another thing, keep the interstate speed limit ONE SPEED! YOu start in SD and the SL is 70mph, you go into MN and its 60mph. lets have one constant speed here people! Make it 75-80!!!

 

I did that 1am on empty freeway and getting passed by 18 wheelers. At the end of the drive i was ready to shoot myself.
BTW i was proving a point to someone .

 

funny smiley

 

I know a lot of people would hate this but I think driving with cell phones should be illegal unless you have bluetooth or a headset.

 

I agree with you completely.

 

Word. Up in Santa Fe, that is the law. Hard to enforce it when everybody's windows are tinted though.

Side note: Strtsk8r321, You skate as a hobby or profession? I street skated about 15 years. Took about 4 years off between h/s & college then picked it up until I turned 25. It's been snowboarding ever since. I picked up snowboarding to compensate for skating in the winter & it became my current passion. I've actually relocated w/ my job 3 x to keep near the mountains.
