Default Re: Universal Renewable Energy: Suitable Substitute for Morning Sex?

Here's the thing, most American cars are still designed in Michigan. Approximately 99-44/100% of Michiganders pay no attention to speed limits. We have, through unorganized civil disobedience, effectively raised the speed limit on Michigan highways by 10 MPH. Seriously, it is highly unusual for any cop in Michigan to think it's worth his or her time to write someone up for less that 15 over. This is why I have a, possibly unfounded, faith that American cars will never be equipped with mandatory speed regulators. Because I know that the people designing and building them drive just like I do, because I share the roads with them.
