i always thought US speed limits were the way they are because they have to account for the shittiest cars on the road and their braking distance / combined with human reaction times and poor upkeep of the road surfaces.

germany has a much higher standard of who they let drive and what cars/modification can be done. you can't just run some shitty rep wheel, it has to be TUV/JWL approved for instance. You can't run super sports in the winter.

probably why they are allowed to have an autobahn and we aren't.
