The Speed Limit is Dangerous

Don't drive 55.  That has a nice ring to it.  It could make for a good slogan.  I'm sure S8N will appreciate this video.

lol...i remember this.
Yep that's my interstate.
Well it's actually I-285, which is a loop around Atlanta.
Seriously, 70+ is the norm as that video shows.
When I was a courier I once raced a cop half way around the perimeter at speed up to 95mph. We raced for around 45 miles through traffic that looked just like that. When I finally pulled a better line and was about to leave him in the dust he turned on his blues and pulled me over and actually laughed about the whole thing with me...ain't that some excrement. He did tell me to slow it down some before he left.
I've had a guy motion me to pull over on that highway. When I did he bradished a gun as he approached my vehicle. I simple hit the gas and got the hell out of there. No shots were fired.
darn that highway sucks.

Eiii

OH come on now.
You have that autobalm over there you can go 10000000kph on.
We just made our own! More thrilling that way.

And don't EVEN get me started on why America is the greatest place to live on earth. If you don't think so it's only because you don't know any better.

NVme you non-American scum!

Let's seee.....

Only the bad guys have guns..

Oh, I forgot: if your house gets broken in to and you try to stop the intruder, you can get thrown in jail if the intruder gets hurt.

Yuppers, I'd love to live there... :-X
