[Ghostrider 310]

seven police officers, #$%&* when is the USA going to have an autobahn? Aren't we overdue? We could fit ten Germany(s) in a couple western states yet no speed roads. We have more acreage than EU but no road.Make it a toll road, make people attain special licence to drive fast, no cellphone coverage whatever it takes to enjoy one of the "freedoms" Germany has that we can only dream of, it's Bull$hit man!!

To be fair, the unrestricted autobahns are pretty dull multi lane highways. Even in Germany, the fun roads have speed limits.

But it has always struck me as odd that the US touts its "freedoms" so boldly but doesn't extend this to the roads. If I was being facetious, I'd say the US was a place where it's OK for everyone to have guns, but you get harassed by the police for driving anything faster than an excruciating crawl!

well i think that it is an attempt by the govt. To use speed limits to protect drivers from themselves. The gun part? Well u need a gun to protect yourself from all the others with guns.
