Do you really think the primary reason for having a car that can accelerate from 0 to 60 in 3.8 seconds is just in case you have to rush to the hospital?

What does acceleration speed have to do with speed limits or with your argument? Is accelerating from 0 to 60 in 3.8 seconds illegal?

Yes it is. Look under the highway statutes under unlawful show of speed (usually applied to acceleration and associated with screeching tires and smoke). It has to do with the marketing of speed. Please explain to me why car manufacturers advertise their zero to sixty times with such emphasis. Does it have anything to do with safety? (I'll give you a hint, watch any street racer movie).
