Re:   I don't want you to endanger my life by going faster than 55.

I must ridicule that one - that's one of the privileges and rights on 
net.flame.

I might be concerned about your fears, but given the present day driving
reality, I say to you:

	I don't want you to drive, as I must assume that someone who is not fit
	and willing to cope with traffic going 80 is not fit to drive at all.

or
	I don't want you to drive at all, because anyone considering that
	it is acceptable to go 55 is a public danger, given that i think
	it is irresponsible to go faster than 35.
or
	If God had wanted us to drive he would have given us wheels.
	WALK, I say.

Now how do you like that?

Are you also of the opinion that all air-traffic should be abolished, because
your life is endangered by it?  I would not be surprised.
