Error - Not creating an acceptable range

Hi! I'm having a strange issue with my ruby code. It works in workspaces, but it doesn't work for this challenge task. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Best, Dave

ruby.rb 
def check_speed(car_speed)
  # write your code here

  if (car_speed >= 40) && (car_speed <= 50)
    puts "safe"
  else 
    puts "unsafe"
  end

end

Hey folks! Just found the solution. It looks like I needed to RETURN either "safe" or "unsafe" versus displaying it back via PUTS. Strange, but I'll go with it.
