Since the dry pumps and gas lines have disappeared, motorists are speeding up. But only appearances have changed. There is less fuel today than during the 1974 crisis. We just have access to it now. Then there is the safety bonus. Slower speeds reduce the likelihood of accidents and fatalities. It makes sense. Slower speeds mean more reaction time, less braking time, and greater control. Aside from the benefits of slowing down, there is the point of the law. 55 mph is th i legal limit and that means the North Carolina Highway Patrol enforces it. lEllliiLIz af of o Lf ■ Dl A o I ^
