Now I'm thinking about it, I think it's speed in the wrong situations that moreso causes crashes, in SD, that .can be the case in the winter time.

They know where you are a d what the posted limit is …..so they aren’t speeding mostly. But they will do 40 across the truck fuel islands because there’s not a posted limit…..safety firstBret1984, Siinman, God prefers Diesels and 2 others Thank this. -

There was an article that said even The NTSB recommends greater flexibility in speed limiters.
They know the carnage is going to be real. -
As said, there's already rules and speed limits in place. We can't make things "more illegal".
99% of crashes from semi's are because they're dicking around on their phone. The other 1% are because they couldn't get their feet off the dash fast enough to hit the brakes and not crash into the other mega they'd been tailgating the last fifty miles.
They can't even keep from running over people's hoods in the truckstop at 5 mph while pulling in or out of a parking spot, so WTF is a speed limiter going to solve?? -
