Too fast???

If the government was actually concerned about people going too fast they would simply mandate that every be governed to 75mph max. Problem is that would piss off 100,000 cops/ticket maids because they would no longer legally be alloud to carry a gun and harrass motorists. In a legal sense 1 mph over the speed limit is too fast so if anyone has ever driven over that then they should not be throwing stones at the actions of others. I've driven 140... I've driven 150... I've driven 160 (or at least the speedo said it in the Ferrari I was in). Yes it was on public roads. No it wasn't the safest thing to do but it was still much safer that driving a Ford Excess 15mph over the speed limit weaving in and out of traffic during a Philly rush hour.
