But I understand the argument for them.
The reality for me is that I would indeed like to protect all life, and I'd prefer a reduced number of abortions.
So now what's your point?  |
It's the same point; it hasn't changed. My point mirrors
Car-Addicted, over-intrusion of Government. The Government is already rightly involved with speed limits as the US DOT and State(s) DOT set speed limits on roads. Everyone needs to realize speed limits are based mostly on sightlines and numbers of exits/entries on a particular section of road. Most dumbasses who speed at rates well over the speed limit think the limits are set on grip levels and an ability of a car to remain on the road. As most things, lack of education prevails when accidents happen.
I'm for better driver training, stricter licensing requirements, and periodic testing and continuing/reinforcement education.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
