Feds want speed reduction tech in every new car. Are American drivers ready?

17. I think that it must be unlawful to use turn signals in some States.

Most folks from Georgia either don't know what turn signals are for or either they believe that it is none of your damn business where they are going.

There is nothing like a Texan, driving a King Ranch pickup , pulling a horse trailer, homesteading the fast lane of the interstate, at 69 MPH. Doing synchronized driving with the semi in the slow lane. Traffic backed up to the horizon with pissed off drivers, and they just mosey on along...

I don't really know what the REAL speed limit is on our interstates. I set my speed control on 78, and hunt a soft spot in the slow lane, and watch the folks blowing by me, and rarely see a car pulled any more.

Cars don't need to go over 80 mph, especially in the day of texting and driving. It is an extreme rare occasion where it makes more sense to drive a trauma victim, at breakneck speed, to a hospital, when trauma specialists can come to you in an ambulance with lights and sirens.
