Spoken like a true Ralph Nader wannabee safety Nazi.

My guess is that you either drive an American (but made in Japan)
econobox with 155 tires and automatic transmission that couldn't stop
from any speed above 35 (so you insist on an airbag), or a rolling
sofa like a Buick Roadmaster wagon (but not above 55 to save gas).

Believe me, 55 won't keep rates lower, but millions spent on lobbying
against what *the people* want sure won't help.
