Speed ​​limit: “Stop the frenzy!”

Good morning, dear readers, Germany finds itself in dubious company: our allies include Haiti, Somalia, Myanmar and Lebanon. Dictatorships and failed states, in which largely the same rule applies as in this country: there are no speed limits on trunk roads. To date, no federal government has dared to break the absurd taboo. It’s absurd because there are now so many good reasons for a general speed limit that anyone who is gifted in reason should recognize it immediately.Wait a minute, or are we missing something? Is the freedom of unlimited racing perhaps of very special value? As you can see, we have chosen an explosive topic for today’s podcast. The conversation between Lisa Fritsch, Tim Kummert and me is correspondingly high. Should you hear me. I wish you a relaxing weekend and thank you very much for the many stimulating letters over the past few days. On Monday comes the daybreak from our deputy head of politics Camilla Kohrs.Best regards, your Florian Harms editor-in-chief t-online email: t-online-newsletter@stroeer.deWith material from dpa.You can subscribe to the daily daybreak newsletter here for free.Every daybreak issues can be found here.
