SPEED LIMIT TO 35 MPH >When
the speed limits were raised to 75 mph, did
anyone consider the impact on bugs? >Was an environmental impact statement
done on the carnage that would be wrought on the
insect kingdom? It is time to stop this wanton murder
of crickets, moths, butterflies, grasshoppers,
flying ants, june bugs, gnats, mosquitoes, bees,
and their kin. Why should people just be
concerned about harp seals and condors and bald eagles?
Bugs deserve equal protection to all the nice warm and
fuzzy critters. Do you realize how many bugs you can kill on a
simple drive of 60 miles? Thousands. And you heartlessly
scrape them off your windshield. Think about the poor
little bug families who lost a mother or father because
you chose to go the speed limit. Studies have shown that at speeds of less than
35 mph bugs will blow pass your car, and survive. At
speeds greater than 35 mph they splatter. Stop the carnage. Save the bugs. Lower the
speed limits on our interstates to 35 mph.

Every day millions of insects are
killed on our interstate highways.
