Logic - It is correct

[Angel-Eyes]

ok i read this in a car and driver magazine and it makes complete sense!


i am making the estimated assumption that 100 people die on the highway every hour.

if you take a 60 mile trip going 60mph, then you will get to your destination in one hour, therefore, 100 people died while you were on your journey.

if you take the same trip going 120mph, then you will make the trip in 30minutes, therefore only 50 people would have died on that trip, therefore you will decrease your chance of dying by 50%!



cool huh? :D

[HELLOTHERE]

Thats a cool theory until you get pulled over by the cops for speeding.

[marvel911]

Uh..no I dont think its cool..because people died and thats not cool....But yes, there are alot of bad drivers out there..as well as people who make stupid decesions behind the wheel.

so, alot of people died in WWII, but we still think movies like pearl harbor are cool.

so, whats the point?

[Iplay2win]

nice theory but I bet the cops would believe it if you tell them that when they pull you over

[105-1091146135]

interestin!! never knew tht

[raddaman0628]

Ever thought you might crash into a building for going too fast and killing 200 people there?

[kesterlol]

yeah, but then I remembered how good of a driver I am

[raddaman0628]

If that is true why are you driving at age 15 when you are only supposed to drive at age 16.
