Show me a study that shows having a speed limit improves safety. You may enjoy living in a world in which the government dictates every aspect of your life. I don’t.

You just crack me up. No way are your posts for real. Anyway...A study by the University of Wisconsin-Madison found that lower speed limits on inland lakes in Wisconsin reduced the number of accidents and fatalities.
A study by the National Marine Manufacturers Association found that slower speeds reduce the risk of accidents and injuries, and that boaters who travel at slower speeds are more likely to be wearing life jackets.
