When The Landscape Is Quiet Again
Former governor Arthur A. Link has become virtually a mythic figure in the North Dakota consciousness. Art Link was governor of North Dakota during the first great energy crisis in the 1970s. On October 11, 1973, Governor Link delivered what is widely regarded as North Dakota's "Gettysburg address". His credo, written in the margins of his prepared speech moments before he was introduced, is known by its opening phrase: "When the landscape is quiet again." This is the story of that man, that speech, and the landscape that inspired it.
Why 55?
Discusses the importance of the 55 mph speed limit established by the National Speed Limit Act of 1974, which has reportedly saved over 45,000 lives and conserved billions of gallons of gasoline. The film presents various perspectives on the speed limit, highlighting its benefits in reducing accidents and fuel consumption, while also addressing the controversy surrounding its enforcement. It emphasizes that driving at 55 mph increases reaction time and decreases stopping distance, ultimately making roads safer. The film concludes by urging viewers to adhere to the speed limit to save lives and energy.
