I would expect that chance of mechanical failures increases with increase of speed. Culture plays a role in a way that while there is no legal speed limit, few Germans drive above recommended 130KM/h.
Really? Not when I picked up my BMW from there.
I didn't even mention that if your car does fail because of mechanical failure, it's still considered an accident, regardless of how fast you were going.
German folk has to go to driving school for 3 months before they get a license. Wouldn't you call that another unnecessary government bureaucracy ?
Good one, but the fact that local governments here would hand a license to anyone, then slap arbitrary and pointless speed limits to every single person, that is entirely a failure of government. If the government has to exist, then they should at least do their stated job instead of lying and stealing from people.
Don't take laws in general, take homicides (other than self-defense). Or maybe we should legalize them ?
Strawman, laws against murder aren't idiotic, and one of the few that aren't.
Technically that's not allowed. At least in California where I initially got licensed and actually studied for the test. Is it different in Oregon ?
That's an example. They can be going 45 or 50 with the exact same effect downstream.
NFA laws had some societal interest when they got passed. Those interests are long gone, so we have to revisit those laws.
Hahahaha, good luck on that, just like trying to revisit speed limit laws. Reasons are twofold. Too much money to be made, and the state loves to demonstrate its power, and hence will rarely relinquish it, if ever.
