I recall the article in "Car and Driver" a coupla years ago. Despite not having speed limit on autobahns in Germany, the death toll (official statistics) there doesn't exceed ours, but is actually lower. My point? Please prove me (not you, the Government) that pot is really harmful or that anti-drug war reults in a more stable, more safe and more moral society. I doubt that.
Sorta off topic but... The reason they have less deaths is: There is a speed limit on much of the autobahn. The parts that don't have it only don't have it in good weather. The whole road is monitored by cameras and has electronic signs so they can change the speed limit at will. Also it costs over $1k to get a license in those countries and the driver's education is much better than ours. The inspections on the cars may be tougher as well. (Many cars in the US are never inspected but I'm guessing every car in Germany is inspected yearly.)
