Michigan Velocity
On the principle that no motor drivers heed speed restrictiions, that some drivers are capable of proceeding safely at greater speed than others, last week the. law passed by the last session of the Michigan State legislature went into effect, permitting travel over Michigan roads outside of city limits at any velocity.-- Yet "No person shall drive any vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than will permit him to bring it to a stop within the assured clear distance ahead."
--As is now the case in many European countries. No other U. S. state has such a law.
