Should cars that go 100+ mph be street legal?

Spinoff of the Henry Ruggs thread. I had a conversation with someone earlier today who stated there was no reason for there to be cars on the road capable of more than 100 mph, and there's really no argument that can be made against that.

Meanwhile...we all now know what the new Corvette is capable of, and Chrysler is throwing Hellcat engines in everything possible, and the number of electric cars available with silly horsepower is constantly growing.

Is this really a good thing? Poll forthcoming!!!

Some people have to bring their political bullshit into every single thread and make every argument a slippery slope, no matter how insignificant a restriction would be on their life?

Is that it?

How do you even conceive the notion of restricting the actions of others without invoking the notion of political power?

Seems to me that, no matter what behavior you want to elicit or restrict in another individual, you have 3 options; persuade them, force them through personal might, or force them by proxy through the might of governance.

I purposely did not talk politics but rather asked you to simply "think" and you answered my and your question at the same time. Its all good.

I will say this, I don't think cars should be limited, though I don't see the purpose of driving over 100 mph on public roads and having a drivers license isn't a citizens right.

If street legal cars had a 100 mph limiter installed in them it wouldn't bother me in the slightest. The highest my truck ever sees is maybe 80 mph if I need to get in front of a semi when merging onto a highway and then its right back down to 70-75.

Fast cars are a sign of toxic masculinity and freedom to make personal choices...I think all cars should be tan and slow... and men digitally monitored...limited to only 2 orgasms a week.

You want three...that will $200 deducted from your digital ID account.

I NEED a car that exceeds 100 MPH...to avoid you commie freaks.

I dont support the government putting some sort of speed control on cars but what I do question are some of the laws and how they delt. I mean you have videos of Ruggs going high speeds in the past, buying a high speed car where the website openly admits to having built in radar dection which is illegal in Nevada. Now how is it different between me filming myself going 100 in a car that weighs a ton on a road shared by others and openly shooting a gun into the air? They are prosecuted much differently but both are extremely dangerous to the public.

I generally favor personal freedom. I am against most vaccine mandates. Not in favor of forcing masks on school children but limiting cars to a more reasonable speed on the highway makes sense. In Germany on Autobahn, everyone pays attention to the rules of the road so driving 120 MPH there feels safer than 65-75 MPH in the USA. Too many drivers in the USA are distracted/drunk or simply don't know how to drive well so I support introducing a limit.

In the USA given the terrible drivers, cars without the most safety devices to prevent collisions and lessen the impact of them should be limited to something like 105 MPH. Vehicles with them and drivers having to blow into some sort of device to make sure they are sober, I would allow to go up to 120/125 MPH on certain desolated highways like in the desert.

I wouldn't make old cars without these speed governors illegal or force any sort of retrofitting on them so it would take 10-20 years to really start lower the death rate/accident rate from some of these idiots who think they are Nascar drivers on public highways.

I don't care if folks go over 200 MPH on the track so I would allow GPS or something like that to control if the speed governors take effect.

Just wait until GPS is attached to you digital ID account....

Stevegrogan fan, our monitoring system shows you exceeded the approved speed limit of 45 and maintained a MPH of 48 for 3 minutes and 23 seconds.

That will be $666 dollars...

You MF's that crave being digitally controlled/monitored...arent going to like where this ultimately goes.

No. It's safer to have a car that is engineered to be able to handle going substantially faster than I would ever drive it, and to be driven under substantially rougher conditions than I would ever attempt. So allow me to purchase more than I need and to use the restraint that an adult citizen is expected to have in a complicated society.


TL/DR: Go **** yourself.
