Adult content...who wanted the changes...

Not when you know the law. Last ticket I had was thrown out before trial when I submitted requests for various documents. The judge realized I would cost the state more than they would make in fines and court costs.

So you decided you're not going to be one of the lucky ones.

It's not a new thing re: PG land. I was at Blondin's office hours yesterday and this was discussed. You already have a thread regarding this.

The "mess" we got would be ok if we could convincve them to remove Aristole, but evrybody seems more interested in geting rid of the mess when it's not going to happen instead of improving it.

Trouble with speeding regularly or excessively is sh*t happens, not too many people can think of all the accidents or near misses they've had and then say they would have been happy for the incidents to occur at higher speeds.

Sure driving fast feels safe and fine when you're 20yo, bulletproof with nintendo reflexes, but it doesn't account for 30-50yo people who burned their reflexes out on Atari, don't have 20/20 vision or have a kid screaming on the back seat.

20yo apprentice at work brought a motorbike last month, us older peers immediately swatted him around the ears a bit then reccommended he at least get the right safety gear and he did.

His best mate left his place at 3am Saturday morning wearing no helmet mounted a gutter outside the local hospital at some silly speed and at 5am the apprentice was saying final goodbye to his best mate.

The trick is to be the *second* fastest car on that stretch of road, then the other guy will get caught and not you.

Applying this to SL, you don't want to be the most blatant abuser of traffic bots, or violator of the new maturity standards, you want to be "under the threshold". In driving and police, its one car and one police usually, so second fastest is the optimum. With SL, it will be just below the capacity of the G team to chase people.

Given past experience, when they still have deal with the daily flow of ARs, then chase the micro parcel extortionists, followed by the bot farms, it seems to take them several months to "clean up" a new issue. So I predict this latest Adult issue will take months to chase down also.

It is because of people who think like you do that I have to pay through the nose for car insurance simply because I live in an area where people who believe themselves above traffic laws are so prevalent, one of them is scraped up off the highway at a rate of 2 per month, along with the family of four that these asshats took out with them. One of those families of four was my best friend, her husband, and kids, three years ago.

You may think you are smarter than the traffic engineers who decide the speed limits for any given stretch of pavement; but the speed limits are there for a reason - and in many locales, those speed limit signs were printed in blood.

So we are going to raise the speed limits to actually meet what the roads are designed for? Cool. Speed limits in most cases are only put in place to raise money for the state. You want to beat a speeding ticket? Ask to see the engineering study that set the limit for that stretch of pavement. Ask to see the speed driven by 80% of the drivers on that stretch of road. You do know that Federal law requires all speeds to be set using a current engineering study? Why won't the state produce them when they are asked for?

Why not just raise the limit to what is safe for an experienced racing driver to do in a sportscar, then you can't whine when some clown overtakes you at a stupid but legal speed in a truck in the rain.
Raise the speed to what 80% of drivers do and 80% of drivers will still be exceeding the new limit 12 months later and having more accidents.
Speeding is for lazy iggnorant people who can't get their arses out of bed 5 minutes earlier in the morning.
