Where in the US Constitution or the related Bill of Rights, does it allow the Federal Government to control driving law on intrastate roads.
TOO MUCH government now.
Yep, too much. Plus did we try the "shove the feds ideas down our throats" back when road funds were tied to speed limits? That 55 mph junk was just too fun for me. I learned to drive back then, and I'm still astonished at how dangerous it was in my sub-urban areas. How about a federal "right except to pass" law, it would save more lives. Oh yea, government intervention rarely comes with common sense. It would end up as "left to block all traffic"
Seems like a LOT of fuss about something that is NOT happening, has NEVER happened and is not LIKELY to ever happen. When the Nixon administration proposed the reduced speed limits it was a financial inducement that states were free to reject if they chose and not a mandate.
