"Hit Someone At 30" is just plain dumb to show as written words. How about "30's Safer Than 40"? Makes me believe more and more they are trying to practice population control.

Just keep that cruise control dialed in to 30, since if you hit somebody there's really no need to stop...They just jump up and shake it off."
