This was a thing I always questioned as a kid actually.

Surely if you don't want people breaking the speed limit, you could just make it so vehicles literally can't do that.

Limiting exactly at the max speed limit would make a lot of overtakes of slower vehicles more unsafe. Limiting the speed at slightly above the maximum speed limit is a good idea though. I know in Japan cars are usually limited to 112mph/180kph on public roads, though I think that's a bit too high. It's a good place to start though.

Alternatively of course people just wouldn't do that because they can't.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
