I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned -
I'll usually do no more than 7ish MPH over the speed limit.
I just wish Illinois would be like their neighbors and increase to 70MPH on the interstates. There's absolutely NO reason for 64/70/57/24 in Southern IL to be capped at 65MPH. And, despite being in the middle of nowhere, there are always highway patrol about...Comment

Typically at or very slightly above the limit (110 km/h on our freeways). Tonight I drove from Canberra to Sydney (to fly out to LA) and my wife was late for a hair appointment, so I drove at about 118 km/h to make it on time.
I'm now off to see if my good deeds will get their just reward

I think I may have seen those limits on I-10 in the desert.Originally posted by SlowwHand View PostI came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

They would have to have pulled over everyone.

I don't see it as ****ed up. It's always safer to go with the flow of traffic than otherwise.Originally posted by Wezil View Post
The most dangerous drivers on the 401 are the ones going the speed limit. It forces others to pass them, and the more lane changes required, the more accidents..."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

They aren't pulling over the slower people to improve safety.
The rule is essentially saying "We don't have the resources to enforce this law so we won't". Extend that thinking."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

Is this an "unwritten" rule Boris? I'd love to see the text of that."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

Hmm. I think you misunderstand. I have no problem with speeding (if done safely). I agree with Asher's point about unusually slow drivers being a hazard.Originally posted by MrFun View PostWezil's on a mission to make the world safe for all drivers.
The "flow" of traffic on our 400 series highways is about 120km/h although the limit is 100 km/h. The police here have decided ("unwritten") 120 is a safe speed and will rarely ticket for it...but they could."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

Concern about slower drivers being a hazard means that you're still on a mission to make the world safe for drivers.
