I want to create a movement that will obtain the traction needed to convince government officials that speed limits need to be increased around the United States in order to make roads more efficient and safer for everyone. It would start with the people driving in the United States and then use the traction it achieves from the recognition to influence the government officials who can make the real changes.

Furthermore, my audience would include pedestrians who walk in proximity to roads or cross them to reach their destination. For greater variance in driving speeds causing cars to be spread apart making it more difficult for people to cross the road as there is constant traffic. People who ride in car can also be affected strongly whether they just don’t have a driver’s license or are too young or otherwise ineligible to receive one. This issue would also greatly affect people who drive for their income and the companies they work for. Truck drivers would be allowed to drive at higher speeds causing deliveries to be quicker improving the business that certain companies could provide allowing the economy to improve as a side benefit. This makes this group a huge target as a part of my audience. My audience would also include government officials who have the power to change the laws. The evidence that is effective for this audience can vary greatly because of how wide and diverse the audience is. This allows all evidence to be fairly effective because it will almost always affect some part of the audience. However, the best evidence would most likely be valid statistics and official documents. This is because people can easily understand statistics and official documents can be
171_kyle-busch-auto-interview_flashWith the success of Kyle Busch since returning from his injuries sustained during the Xfinity Series season opener at Daytona in February, many fans have wondered if NASCAR should give him a pass for the other half of the Chase for The Sprint Cup in which contingency rules state he must be in 30th place or higher in the points standings to qualify for the chase. In my own personal opinion, I believe that even though Busch will make it in the top 30, if he somehow does not, he should be given a waiver due to his win total (currently highest in Sprint Cup).

Brent Knutson article “Auto Liberation” is an interesting one. Knutson has just returned from a four year stays in Kaiserslautern, Germany and realized quite a few differences in the German Autobahn and American Interstate System. The difference have lead him to take a position on making American interstate highways “Speed-limit Free”. “Auto Liberation” uses four main points to support his position; American’s can drive “at speed” with proper training, cars are made to drive fast safely, insurance twist statistics for to scare us for their own benefit, and lastly it’s fun to effectively prove his position. Knutson effectively persuades his position on making American interstate highways “speed-limit free” by using descriptive writing, quotes

“Why Electric Cars are the Future” Introduction Attention Getter: It was Sunday at park, two college students were discussing about cars.
