I Can't Drive 55

By Laura Knoy on Friday, June 9, 2006.

A Memorial Weekend crackdown by New Hampshire law enforcement netted a large number of speeders, many of whom were going eighty-miles-an-hour or faster. There's no doubt that Granite Staters have a need for speed...and almost as many opinions about it as tickets given out last week. We'll look at the current laws, hear what you think about the current speed limits...and also get into why we drive the way we do. Laura's guests are Peter Thomson, Coordinator for the State of New Hampshire Highway Safety Agency and Captain Alan Welch, State Police Command Staff. We'll also hear from Dr. Leon James, Professor of Psychology at the University of Hawaii who also is known as Dr. Driving on the web.
