New There ya go
I wait for the bus on a stretch of road that is long and straight. The speed limit is 40. At least once a morning, I see some complete idiot pass on the RIGHT (that's your LEFT) going like a bat out of hell. I've taken to positioning myself behind both a telephone pole and a street light standard, to avoid becoming a 10th-pin spare.

Americans are BAD drivers. The auto is a surrogate sex organ here.

Light is heavy:
R{} = (2R/W)T - (1/2W){D-2,D-2}W

Heavy is light:
(D-3)(RF[] + 5/4 g) = 0
New Re: slow down
Not always.

There's a stretch of highway south of town (Milwaukee, Wis) that used to be posted 65 mph. A few years ago, they dropped the speed limit to 55 mph. A few days ago, they raised it back to 65 mph to reduce accidents. The number of traffic accidents on that stretch of highway INCREASED when the limit was reduced from 65 to 55.

Not trying to cause a dispute; just pointing out an interesting factoid that goes contrary to what you would think.
