Dear Americans

Dear Fellow Americans Over 10,000 people died in speed related accidents in 2009 in the United States. Now let’s fast forward to 2013 when The National Safety Council estimated that 35,200 people died in U.S traffic accidents; plus there were about 3.8 billion crash injuries requiring medical attention. An official from the agency blamed majority of it on human error (speeding). People disobey speed limits for some of the same reasons they break other laws. Its gives them a sense of power and that they are in control of their actions when it comes to testing the limits. Why aren’t drivers abiding by the speed limit while driving? Is it because they are late for work or an appointment and or for their own physiological emergency? Every speeding has completely diverse reasons under specific circumstances. People have agreed that the role in speed related accidents are 100 percent entirely theirs. When a topic such as this one has abroad amount of variables it is impossible to place the blame entirely on humans. I believe there is someone operating in a much bigger role when it comes to controlling speed. This role is currently being operated by a two headed monster; the federal government; who fail to pressure manufactures for change. Should we as people raise our concerns and protest? Why haven’t the government stepped in to change the MPH a vehicle can travel? Do the government and manufactures really care about safety? Will lowering the speed limit help any? Should we protest for a change of MPH in vehicles? With much speculation, this topic has become a very intriguing argument. The argument I’m going to present is to which why high speeds are allowed. The government is the major money maker when it comes to collecting funds from speeding tickets and or traffic violations; which they collect on the back end from taxes and etc. The U.S governments are in support of and allow independent states to set the increase and decrease
