Safety groups call for 60 mph speed limiters on trucks

Also it's the cruise control. Better not be using that going up/down grades.

 

Set your cruise to 59 and watch all day as everyone passes you at 60mph. The four wheeler drivers will even be protesting the law then.

 

No four wheeler is gonna protest the law. They will just think trucks are even more of a nuisance and the drivers are dumber then ever. 99.99999% of the public will not even know there is a law to slow trucks down. Just like they don’t know 99% of the laws they break every minute they are behind the wheel.

Someone needs to bring back the vintage “I hate slow trucks” bumper stickers they had back in the double nickel days.

 

Heh here is our new E V that does 0-60 in 3.2 seconds! That's ok. Here have a 707hp Hellcat to commute with. That's OK too from "safety" groups.

 

700 horse hellcats, that's a safety group I'd join right there.

 

Mine has eco roll. It will kick in N and go all the way to 82 before Jake brake kicks in and slows it down. It will do this as long as I have it on even if driving pedal or cruise.

 

Last time I checked. Neither of those could run over 5 or 6 cars leaving them flat. Nor are they 80K moving missiles.

 

No you are not. Take the cars out and you'll have an 80% reduction in occurrences.
I preferred this term instead of accidents.
You'll still have the low bridges/construction/GPS related occurrences but only 20% of the present rate.

 

Driving licenses are like candies. Everyone gets one. Unless you are a diabetic.
Then it might kill you slowly.
