To the editor:

If possible, will someone please answer the following?1. Why do 90 percent of Utah drivers exceed the posted speed limits, whether on city streets, state highways or freeways?

2. Why do 90 percent of Utah drivers follow so close?

3. Why won't 90 percent of Utah drivers slow down in a school zone, even when the yellow lights are on and the safety cones are out in the street?

4. Why do 90 percent of large commercial vehicles exceed posted speed limits anywhere in the state?

5. Why is there so much frustration about PhotoCop? If you exceed the speed limit, then you need to quit complaining and pay up.

My answer to all of the above is that somewhere, somehow, someone is failing, whether in driver education, law enforcement or just plain sense.
