Have been driving a lot more during the pandemic. Nobody follows speed limits, almost without exception. We have average speed cameras in place for trucks, turn them on for cars. Our hyper-individualism doesn't even see that a regulated system improves traffic flow. Imagine aeroplanes being able to choose whatever speed they wanted. Cars transport VASTLY more people than aeroplanes, and yet our whole road system is barely regulated. It destroys our towns and cities, and kills thousands. Cars are our most anti-social, anti-democratic invention.
