Speed Limits

In Germany did you know that cars can drive as fast as they want? they have no speed limits in Germany, you can drive from 40 mph or 140 mph, do you think we should be able to do that in the United States?

1. Explain why we need or don't need to have speed limits on our highways in the US?

I think we should have speed limits because to keep people under control less accidents.

I think that it is unfair. We should be able to drive however fast we want to drive, but I also think that we should be able to control or have a certain speed limit in certain places because we wouldn't want to be driving fast in a place where there are little kids.

We need limits because without limits then there could be a whole bunch of car crashes. We could run someone over or if there some drunk then, what do you think would happen. They would probably be evrywhere and on the other side of the street or then can do something stupid.

I think that we should not be able to speed for safty. Another part of me doesn't want a speed limit because it sounds fun, and you can get to work on time or even early.

You don't need speeto go but yod limits because you can go whatever speed you want But however you should'nt go to fast because you could cause an accident.

I think we need to have what Germany has because they have two sections where in one section they can drive as fast as they want to go. In the other section, they can drive as fast as they want. This still may cause traffic but less of it and no one will have road rage at all or as much.

the speed limit should go up because if we rein a rush and were way behind scedule we can just speed up and get there on time.

I think that we do need speed limits for the highway because people who like go fast anyway drive like jerks and then they pay the price by getting in an accident or getting pulled over.

I don't know how the people at in Germany, so I don't know if they're safe and responsible drivers. In the United States, some citizens are unresponsible drivers. We have drivers who are drunk, careless, or unexperiance at some moments. Since, I don't know how the people at in Germany, so I don't know if they're safe and responsible drivers. I can't be sure if it would be safe if there were no speed limits from the conflicts with America's drivers since there might be countless car accidents and deaths everyday with no speed limits.

The reason why the US highway does not put speed limits,is because there is always traffic there anyways.

I think we need speed limits so people will have rules to follow on the highway. Having speed limits will prevent people from crashing into each other.
