Filth-swilling yellow-bellied coward! DIE DIE DIE

Hence the revocation of unlimited speed zones in various locations that once had 'em. But then inregards to the revocation of the no-limit that Australia's Northern Territory had, I can sorta see the point, I mean 100kph+ on barely graded dirt tracks is something very few cars and drivers can pull off. Then on the paved roads at night....natural selection apparently knocked into peoples heads 110 to 160 is the sweet spot. A little thing called wandering wildlife, y'know - kangaroos, livestock, snakes - stuff like that.

As to traveling at way under the speed limit, for some of the drivers around here. No for all drivers. It's become a fact of life, for I am in a state that starts fining at 3kph over. So in a world where the speedos are allowed a 10% tolerance, we've become very paranoid lot.
