Here's a hint, if a following distance isn't enough for you, then
you'd better hope you have someone else on the trigger of that time
machine cuz you won't be in any shape to use it.

Hmm, I saw doctors for a few years about my bad knees, apparently
nothing was wrong.  Saw a chiropractor and the pain went away.  Big
bad M.D.s with all their experience, training and tools didn't have a
clue as to the problem.

Is it my fault that your response to the question "why" is to sling
mud?

Sigh, I've never claimed you were wrong in any of your investigations.
But the "speed related" tag, despite generous padding, doesn't appear
nearly as often as you claim.

Hmm, are the speed limits going up, down or remaining static?  Seeing
as they are on their way up it appears that I am getting my own way.
To put this in terms that you can understand, :P

Open your eyes, Earl.  There's a big bad world out there that isn't
impressed by your harrumphing.  

I'm certain that on a case by case basis you can prove that speed
killed specific individuals because I've never denied that it happens.
But on a general road safety basis, proving that lower speed limits
cause less accidents is as beyond you as it is beyond the NHTSA.
