true, but speeding also puts people in risk. it's easier to lose control of a vehicle at a higher rate of speed.

On that same note the faster the speed the less chance or decreased time to react. Even if you do its with devastating results. SUV's are prone to more damage to other cars because of the higher center of gravity (tipping over, larger mass) and GENERALLY the mom or woman who is yapping on the phone going 80mph, I see men do it too. Okay somewhat of an exageration but you get the point. I'm not saying SUVs are the only ones get in accidents, any car can but...you know the culprits.

me too. it's too bad that there are moronic drivers here in Sac, that do not clear themselves or force you out of your lane. seriously! it's horrible here!

yes, true that. also braking will take longer distances with increased speeds. more worse, those drivers that "get hyphy" while driving on the freeway!
