Speed limits are ludicrous. However, we are subjected to it because of the false sense of safety it provides and the revenue it generates the state. I intend to discuss why the speed limit cannot truly be enforced, it’s a waste of valuable time, and it implies that the DMV licensed drivers are incapable of judging the correct speed to safely operate their vehicle. Every driver fears getting pulled over, but is it enough to stop speeding? No, as of now no one can enforce speed limits. Law…

No wonder, the ABM WEEK 2016 plenary "How to be more productive?" aroused great interest among the audience. The session was coordinated by Francisco Coutinho Dornelas, assistant to the executive…
Fact we should increase the speed and let the careless drivers deal with the problems they cause and not penalize the rest. Even though driving 55 miles per hour is more fuel efficient,the speed limit needs to be increased because people get to places faster and save time and accidents are only caused by careless drivers. Driving at 55 miles per hour is more fuel efficient and the only way we have to worry about efficiency is because Back in 1973 the United States was in an oil embargoed by…

The Type Racer Showing your true talents at school is a great feeling. When showing your talents you always want to show your skills as good as possible. I believe everyone has a talent that they have practiced to master or they were good at it since the first day one. I have a talent that I was horrible at when I started at, But then I gave it my best to improve and I succeeded more than I thought I would, I has passed the typing speed I thought I would never get. My goal when I was a…
While driving on the highway, a driver decides that he/she should speed, just to get to his/her destination faster, and the person feels like there is no harm done if he/she gets caught speeding, since it is not that big of deal, since it is not a violent or major crime, so what harm can be done? Frank Trippett, in the article, “A Red Light for Scofflaws”, suggests that more and more ordinary citizens are becoming scofflaws, people who break the law casually, because they feel like law and…
Trains are very nice way of transportation and can also be a safe way of transportation, that's if we follow the rules. Waiting for a train to pass by may take just a minute or two. If we are so impatient just to cross the railroad while a train is coming that is just pure ignorance. Why would we cross a railroad while a train is coming just to save a few minutes when you are also risking your own life, all just for a few minutes. When the signs that a train is coming and the railroad barricades…
The maximum speed for vehicles travelling on Australian highways is currently 110km/h. It is argued that this speed is too slow for a highway and may cause more road accidents and increase the road toll due to the drivers being restricted by the speed limit. When the speed limit is slow, drivers are left dangerously stuck behind and in-between trucks. The drivers are also too frustrated about not going above the low speed limit which can act as a distraction. (Tucker, 2015) Therefore, the…
One evening I was leaving my very best friend’s house, around 9:30. He lives about fifteen to twenty minutes away, north of Charleston. I was heading home going about 70 Mph. Way too fast! When I first leave you go on this highway heading east for about seven minutes, then turn onto a road heading south for about ten minutes, until finally having to turn back east onto a country road. So I left and started heading on the roads. I have a year 2000 car so it’s not band new. My headlights on my car…
It was a very nice summer evening, the sun was just starting to set behind us as I drove down the highway. Without a worry, the music was blaring and there was a lot of singing and laughing going on in the car. Three of my friends and I were on our way to a movie in Spirit Lake, when the trip took an unexpected turn. Now, instead of going to the movie, I was going to have to go to court. I quickly pulled to the side of the road and rolled down my window for the man that was standing…
