def check_speed(car_speed, speed_limit)
  if car_speed > speed_limit
    puts "Slow down!"
  else
    puts "Safe travels!"
end

Hiya Ben! You didnt close your "if" conditional with "end" keyword. Do that and you are good to go. (:

Hi Ben, you missed the "end" keyword to the "if" statement.

if car_speed > speed_limit
    puts "Slow down!"
else
    puts "Safe travels!"
end
