To be honest, I don't really agree with this. There will be speeders that hit slower cars. Now if those cars were going faster that wouldn't happen. The fatality rate will be close to the same. I've been in friends cars zipping through heavy traffic at over 80mph I guess they were just smart drivers.
And for myself, I wouldn't certainly do it through that amount of traffic.Mazda miata MX5, first generation.

I don't know who that is, but he's not very smart. I drive fast and crazy every single day, I haven't died, nor has anyone else.
It has nothing to do with the speed limits. It has to do with this
- Stupidity, is the main one.
- Eating, doesn't mix.
- Drinking a beverage, doesn't mix.
- Playing with your cellphone (If that's illegal already, is here)
- Fixing your hair.
- Playing with the radio.
- Road rage.
- Looking at a map.
- Cars that aren't maintained properly.
It has to do with attention, nothing with speed. Yes speed does also give you more room to react in a bad situation. But it wont prevent very many accidents.
Another thing is, you shouldn't take your eyes off the road in traffic. Actually, never take your eyes off the road at all. They don't outlaw any of the above things i've listed. Why not outlaw eating, radios and drinking in the car? Do you know why?
Because this man that said that, probably loves swinging by a fast food restaurant and grabbing a burger, or going to the donut shop and getting some morning coffee. Now the radio... Well who doesn't love them?
Another thing is why not put a IQ limit to get a drivers license?
Cars that aren't maintained properly, maybe if your tire is only a couple of pounds low on air pressure or the tires or brakes still have a couple hundred miles of life in them still. It doesn't matter, you should make sure the vehicle is maintained properly at all times.
Just wait, it wont fix a single thing. The speedlimits will go back up.
Edit:
Not only to top things off, 50mph to 60mph is probably a 1% more fatality rate. 50-80mph is probably 10 or 12% more fatality rate. Now that you'll have speeders crashing into slower cars you'll have a higher fatality rate. YAY!

I don't think any of you understand how to use profanity correctly.
Pay closer attention.
Just because it 'looks' clear or it's supposed to be, it just might not be.

If you keep following that logic, you might be wrong.
S3 could be done tomorrow, it could be done in 15 years.

Does more than you think.
Hope is a concept that deprives the mind of doubt. For some people anyway.
I saw that when it came out.
Cherry I agree.
Sponge I think the car will make a fine addition to LFS. I wont mind driving it at all. Some people didn't get the perfect car that they wanted, so it's not the same to them. So they don't want the Scirocco, i'd just accept that car.
Amynue maybe it would almost be better releasing a buggy Scirocco.
But the problems would just worsen in my opinion. Releasing a bugged car through a test patch, isn't a very good idea. Then people will just complain how 'they' released a bugged car. They'd complain about every little pixel that wasn't perfect on it. Somethings can't be perfect, and if the developers release it when it's finished, people will except those small details as they are. But if the developers release it in a test patch that means it's not finished, so then people will began "I SEE A PIXEL THAT'S NOT PERFECT! FIX IT PLEASE!.", people will think that's supposed to be fixed to make the matter short.
So it's just the way it goes.

I think it's about time that a mod locks this thread.
The car will come when it comes, then all of you will be tired of it and want more.
None of you will be satisfied ever. There will always be something you want in the game.

I really need to buy a camera. and I saw a wreck just like that audi. He was racing and slid sideways into the end of a guard rail. Killed him and his 3 drunk friends. I can't remember the car though.
To be honest on highways i've never gone over 125 mph car would do 150 probably. Things start moving faster than I want them too.
I was in a car that went ripping through heavy traffic on streets at 80-90mph it was a lotus elise. Wasn't me driving though.

My SRT-4 drives like a FXO.... Actually it pretty much is. 
Ah.... kids... I got a picture of something like you said.
To be honest when I was a little boy, my father explained to me what would happen. So I made the decision, sometimes they weren't the best... but... okay I guess. As I grew older I took more safety precautions, due to knowing what would happen if I didn't.
What he's doing is dangerous, he could ruin his whole life. I wouldn't let him do it. I'd take away the saw, and explain to him never do it again. Which my father did in some situations.

Wow fun game, just downloaded demo to try it after reading this.
I tried my best to make the car even skid out of control. It was sort of like real life. You should be able to get into a controlled drift easy.

... Why make a deal out of this?
Just put cones, haybales, tires in the way, that way if you crash you wont bash up your car too badly like you did.
It's no big deal. I can go ahead and show you several of real race tracks that block using tires.

Honestly, you're abit too immature for retiring aren't you?
No offense, but it'll get it here when it gets here. Just go do something else, wait for it. Then when the car gets here, you'll be excited and probably get bored of it quick.
I'd rather have a game that had perfection than flaws and awe's. Somethings in this life you'll find you have to wait for. It takes patient and determination to do some of them.
You wont make it too far in life, if you're impatient. The developers need to take breaks and get on with their life. They have other things to do then develop a game 24/7.
If they wanted to develop a game 24/7 this would be probably finished. Not to mention what impact it would have on the developers lives. I've seen many families split apart due to someone working too much. The developers probably stick to a scedhule. Wake up at this time, eat at this time, do chores/ around the house things this time, develop Live for speed this time, sleep at this time.
And if they wanted to be lazy and finish the game. This game would be plagued with bugs and there'd be a ton of complaining.
It sounds like you lost interest in LFS, to be honest you are either interested or not. A car shouldn't change it either way. Obviously LFS lacks what you need/call entertainment. And if you've lost interest in it... why are you posting here? Or are you interested and just said that hoping maybe the developers would read it and finish S3 immediately?
S3 will take sometime to get developed. And it isn't helping the developers to try and read through spam and see problems with Z10. If you want the car that bad, go buy a real one. Don't spam the thread in search of hope that the car will be developed.
Remember impatience never solves anything. It just makes you want it even more. So be patient and before you know it, it'll be here.
Porsche unleashed anyone?
To be honest, it's a car. Maybe if it was a huge update I could see people being impatient. But it's not... Scawen said so.
Just wait and be patient, the car will come. I'd rather have a car that actually works than a buggy one. I want it also, I wouldn't mind it being here right now. But perfection takes time.
To all the people posting here "Where is it????", just stop. It's not helping... Just making Scawen upset probably.

ha I remember flying this game 4-5 years ago. Fun game, fun game.
I have a Saitek ST290 pro I bought from wal-mart for 20 bucks!
Still runs great!
