There is a common belief which I even believe that says - if you go fast enough infront of a speed camera the second shot the camera takes your car will not be present for the picture. It would be too far away for the camera to take a picture since it is going so fast. This was tested by Top Gear and you might find the result pretty surprising. VIDEO->

Lame. Next time - TELL ME!

Friends of mine have died in trafic accidents which all involved higher speeds than mandated. I think I have very good idea what I am talking about. Your best friends cut in two halves by a tree is not something you want to experience. Grow up.

Speed isn’t the main cause of unsafeness on the highway, it’s retards that impede the flow of traffic and won’t get out of the left lane.

Speed limits are there for a reason, obay them.

9-18-2006 in 11:53:23 at 216.182.15.92Spoken like someone who just got there license and now thinks he’s an expert. True, the left lane is technically a passing lane, yet it is not a “right to speed” lane. If I’m doing the speed limit and I’m in the left lane, I shouldn’t have to worry about the moron racing up behind me doing 20mph over the limit. So who’s responsible for the ensuing accident in that scenario? Not me.

9-18-2006 in 14:24:55 at 207.54.114.145Roads and lanes are only design 20 km faster than there design for. So if you are going way to fast. Your pretty dumb to do so. People dont even think about what will happen. I read a article about one woman who died because the racers colliated into her. Then they blamed her . The racer said” Well we were all ready slowing down to 90km/hr before we got to the turn.” Ya and then after the turn one guy hit her car and the other took off. Then the other people watching didn’t say who took off to the cops. Stupid assholes. the pointt is that they were ging way too fast. she didnt see anything when she pull on to the street then she died. It was a 60 km zone. stupid assholes

9-18-2006 in 23:56:55 at 69.76.211.234Don’t believe what you have been force fed your entire lives. Speed limits exist to fund police forces and the insurance companies join in for a piece also. Consider that NY brings in about 350 million annually from traffic violations, LA brings in 150 million, etc. FHA studies have proven that the safest speed to be driving is 10-15 MPH over the speed limit. It all comes back to flow of traffic the speeds that people drive at and accidents make a perfect bell curve. If the speed limit is 65 mph the safest speed to be driving at is up to 20 mph over the speed limit. Anything more or less is where the risk of an accident becomes more likely. If it is 75 than 30 mph over the speed limit is now the safest. Excessive speed accidents make up the smallest percentage of accidents annually. The most accidents are actually caused by people driving to slow (defined as being in the 5th percentile of the “flow of traffic”). Not paying attention is the next largest group. Research the traffic laws in your area, fight your tickets and don’t get a lawyer unless you are going to plea bargain.
