For real though, why can’t people just drive at the speed limit?
The safest speed to drive is the speed of traffic, because the thing that’s most likely to cause accidents is changing lanes or speed. Traffic is almost always moving faster than the speed limit, so the speed limit actually reduces safety. If they were designed based on the speed people feel comfortable driving then they’d be reasonable and safe, but that’s not how they were decided. Speed limits are bad.
