UPDATE: Speed Kills Your Pocketbook 2 - Lying with Statistics will be released in early November, 2019. See the trailer at: https://www.gofundme.com/f/skyp-2-lyi...
(Sorry for the delay. Global BC launched a somewhat bogus copyright claim and it took a bit of doing to wrangle that out.)
Does speed really kill? Sometimes, yes, but when the speed limits are set artificially low, and enforcement is targeted to those areas where the limit is far below traffic speed, then all the speed kills campaign does is keep drivers complacent about paying fines that don't improve safety.
In this video, I investigate the culture and science surrounding speed enforcement in BC, coupled with my trademark Simpsons, Supertroopers, and Family Guy references.
Enjoy!
And yes, I'm the FightFightHST guy.
