Quote from: smerlus on April 18, 2004, 06:00:44 PMok show me the statistics that you're talking about and we'll debate that...Ok, I don't wanna go through the 2000 articles about car/motor on Norway's biggest newspaper, but they had a article about a European study some months ago, and this is what it basically said:* 50-zones are 3-4 times more dangerous than 80-zones, almost 65-80% of all accidents happen in 50-zones.* Practically all accidents in 80-zones happen because someone drives way too slow or holds up traffic in some way, or front to front accidents. (Usually drunk drivers)Also a small percentage: sliding because of slippy/wet road or snow.Ask a policeman, he'll tell you.. the old man with hat going in 40-50 on a 80 zone is among the biggest traffic hazards there is.Quote from: smerlus on April 18, 2004, 06:00:44 PM..you couldn't have a decent debate if you had help from everyone on this board cause as soon as you're proven wrong, you resort to name calling.eat a dick jome Name calling.. I called you a genius, boo hooooo.. fuckin fruit.

jome...first off a serious question...i've never been to norway so do you guys go buy Miles per hour? cuz an 80 MPH zone is pretty damn high...if you're already in an 80 MPH zone and you get pulled over...MORE POWER TO THE COPS!here the highest are like 70...and thats rare to see those (especially where i live...) its usually 55-60
first off you know why there's more accidents in 50 zones than 80 zones...it's called a ratio...you probably have more 50 zones than 80 zones.... common senselike luke said, we have 70 mph max's and most are 55-60 and in all my years of driving or being driven someplace i've NEVER seen a 40 mph car on any freeway, highway or expressway but i have seen my fair share of accidents....so you're telling me that the majority of those accidents come from people driving 40 mph? the same people i've never seen? you're full of shit...it comes from assholes that want to do 85 mph, get on someone's ass and then don't have enough time to break if the other person stops or assholes that think that they can slide inbetween cars at high speedsand i live close to a rural area where we have big tractors going 20 mph on a 55 country road that has two lanes each going in an opposite way, now i don't know if your backwards country has trailers but not only are they slow, they are also oversized...and i never hear of someone colliding with one of these tractorsso tell me, if a person is going 40 in an 80...who's gonna hit who? basic laws of physics tells me that the 40 isn't going to catch up to an 80, and common sense also tells me that if i see a slow ass car going in a lane to pass it...you must have a country full of morons if they can't go around a simple slow moving objectso your statistics only go to show that you're a country full of morons and you fail demonstrate the ability to operate motor vehicles.please don't call me names or hit the "diss" button....i'm so fearful of your mod like powersand a last word of advice....you should get one of your buddies to lock this thread because you're just going to make yourself look more and more handicapped and ignorant
ok now that im clear on how you judge your speed...you say that your 80 zones are longer...well here we have this little thing called I-5 and I-90...one extends all the way along the westcoast and the other extends all the way across the united states....both of which are 55 & 60 most of the way.
you said that because your 80 zones were bigger then there was less of them...well if your 55 zones extend across the us and along the west coast...then its the same thing.and we don't have any 80 mph zones.

In southern california, when there is no traffic jams, the avg speed on I-5 is more than 80 mph.
Quote from: Now_I_Know on April 18, 2004, 01:40:07 AMYour logic makes no sense whatsoever...Since there are murderes, burglars, and drug-dealers on the loose, highway patrol shouldn't enforce laws on the road?...GENIUS!This is Norway, not U.S.We have no highway patrol, no F.B.I., no C.I.A., no fucking secret service intelligence, etc. Dumbass.

It's not my fault your country is fucked up...
Quote from: Now_I_Know on April 19, 2004, 12:07:22 AMIt's not my fault your country is fucked up... Fucked up, because we only need 1 Police-unit, and 1 special unit for organized crime, murders.. ??Imagine all the bullshit bureaucracy that goes on in all those divisions you got.. all the corrupt people and "money under the table"..All the tax money spent on people with unneccessary jobs and missions..The more police, special units, intelligence, army, etc. the better society.. ??Is that your point.. ?
My point is, your country is fucked up...The same unit that performs high profile drug busts, also give out parking tickets? Tell me that's not fucked up...Now I know why you're complaining. I would too, if I lived in a country like that.
jome i have a question...a serious one....if you're cost of living is so much higher...why is that? because obviously there isn't a ton of law enforcement to pay through taxes and what not...in fact i would imagine the amount of money your government spends is probably insanely lower than ours. but im just wondering...i don't know that much about it so educate me a little
dude im baning you mother over here in eu. but im not a white,brown,black,yellow etc. im your nightmare
