Is it time to drive 55 again?

With Gas Prices Rising and the Planet Warming, Is It Time To Drive 55 Again? | Autopia from Wired.com


Advocacy groups like drive55.org say rolling the speed limit back to 55 will save fuel, reduce pollution and save lives. It seems logical, but not everyone is convinced slower speeds bring any real benefit, and the debate is heating up.


I am like... oh boy... another debate going on... first, driving age(as well as drinking age) then this...

check the link above to read the Wired article, what do you think?

I do not want us to drive slower again... It should be other way around, let us drive faster to get to where we want to be and give us higher MPG or go green like hybird or such.

Discuss!
