YES!!! they should abide by our speeding laws. I see those with fancy new cars always speeding. Dangerous.

Richard Dillard

Yes, I think there is not reason for any car to be able to go over 100 except for police cars and then before they are sold the engine needs to be modified so the can't go over 100.

Unless you are on a race track, 75 is fast enough.

Brandy Barr

THE SPEED LIMIT IN IDAHO IS 85.

Sam Ackerman

Just a FYI, but there are places in the USA that have have higher speed limits then 75mph

It shouldn't be up to the manufacturer to dictate how fast someone can drive in their car.

might as well go back to the late 70s early 80s when cars were gutless.

Like so many others, how many must die before you understand the meaning of "safe"? The child in the back seat, the passenger? They don't have a say in someone else's stupidity.

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install
