ASSAULT VEHICLE BAN

ASSAULT VEHICLE BAN

In the United States, over 30,000 people are killed every year in motor vehicle crashes.  That is my reason for proposing the assault vehicle ban.   An assault vehicle is any vehicle that is capable of exceeding 25MPH.  NOTE: In the majority of traffic fatalities, one or more vehicles were exceeding 25MPH.

Why, other than saving 30,000 lives every year, do we need such a ban?  There are many reasons but I will point out only a couple of the most important ones. 

First, nowhere in the constitution does it say that anyone has the “right” to own a motor vehicle.  Obviously the founding fathers never intended us to exceed 25MPH.

Secondly, no one really needs a vehicle that will exceed 25MPH except the military and the police.

Such a ban will encourage more people to either walk or ride a bicycle, improving the overall health of the country. 

It would also reduce harmful emissions and conserve fossil fuels.

I know the “National Hot Rod Association”, sports car clubs, motorcycle clubs, and NASCAR fans will all oppose this ban.  That is the reason I am asking you to join me and write or call your Congressman and ask them to please ban all assault vehicles.

STOP THE SENSELESS KILLING.
