I mean it's like many other AMAs. It's someone using the platform to advertise. Actually responding to questions is a pretty low priority.

There's a reason I unsubbed from this and subscribe instead to /r/casualiama

It surprises me that in the U.S. tailgating (among other bad driving habits) is not enforced, where speeding and speeding alone is the media claim for any and all wrecks and collisions.

Do you guys store customer information in a secure manner? In this day an age of large companies storing encrypted but not-hashed, or hashed but not salted passwords it is important to know how much effort is being put into security.

The difference would be between having an effective system to educate drivers about driving habits and road hazards vs providing misleading and often completely incorrect information for the sake of the narrative.

I understand that decades have been spent setting up "speed kills", but it's fundamentally flawed. Even more so in areas where speeds are remnants of the 1970's oil crisis, and areas where the speeds are artificially low to generate ticket revenue from "speeders".

Speeds should be set based on safety as well as averages of a certain % of the typical traffic speed. When you have a multilane, raised, cement expressway at 45mph and traffic moves at 55-65mph, you are practicly an obstacle on the road if you obey the speed limit, making yourself more of a hazard than someone going 70-80Mph on the same road. However, due to the artificially low speed limit, if you drive safely, you are guaranteed to get a "speeding" ticket at some point and time.
