Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Speed Doesn't Kill.

[John Allison (johnallison]

Hey Ken,


So now I am living in Minnesota and I have discovered something rather
silly.  They have a goal to reach 0 traffic fatalities.  I don't see
this as a realistic goal, but by God they will funnel my money into
that goal.

One of their methods of attack includes an increase in speeding
citations.  They don't plan designing roads that safer, i.e. less
blind turns, not slowing to 35mph speed limit on the interstate.  This
is a place with snow, ice, and the tightest turns, on ramps, and off
ramps I have witnessed.  I never hear reports of fatalities due to an
idiot of a civil engineer.
