Hi there! It seems like you were doing pretty well. But it wants the variable too_fast to be set to true if the car is going over the speed limit. And we don't need to print anything out. Here's how I did it:

car_speed = 65
speed_limit = 60

if car_speed > speed_limit
  too_fast = true
end

This simply says that if the car speed is over the speed limit, too_fast will be equal to true. Hope this makes sense! :sparkles:
