Legal technicalities are not involved here. No explanations are required.

The quote attributed to Lt. Dunleavy states that there were no fatal accidents involving speeds greater than proposed. The proposed nighttime speed limit is 25 mph the speed of the boat was calculated to be 28 mph. Understanding nuances of the law is not necessary.

We are not trying to convict somebody here. The only question is if 28 is greater than 25. And no matter how much you dislike HB162, 28 is greater than 25.

By your theory the statement would be correct if there were 100 fatal accidents involving speeds up to 200 mph.

THE STATEMENT IS INCORRECT!
