NHTSA Report - Excessive Speed Responsible for only 5% of Crashes

written by sideout

This is a very interesting time of the year. First this AAA study comes out disproving the myth that the imposed hands-free law should make driving safer. NHTSA reciprocates with the report of their own. The report shows that excessive speed is responsible for only 5% of the crashes.

While a lot of people would try to dispute this report I will just say this one word - autobahn.

German drivers are very disciplined. And their cars are usually well maintained.
That’s another reason why you can drive so fast on the autobahn
