Time to mandate a Momentum Limit on the roads. Let's see, a Yaris at (say) 2500 lbs nominal, at 55 mph, gives a momentum of 137,500 lb.mph. Assume a Camry at 3500 lbs, then his max in a 55 zone would be 137,500 / 3500 = 39 mph.
An old Cadillac at around 5000 lbs would be limited to 27.5 mph, etc. A semi, say consevatively 30 tons (60,000 lbs) would be limited to 2 or 3 mph.  Time to give the semis their own road system, abnd make life safer for all of us. |
