Speed kills. It’s the message that we’ve had driven home for decades by law enforcement and the government. But it’s time to have a serious discussion about speed limits in Australia without the hysterics and put some cold, hard facts into the debate.
@Tau No. First, we need better drivers. Drivers who are taught Physics.
Cars need more things to be controlled by drivers, not less.
Every city should have a track where driving students can learn the consequences of losing control…safely…before they are licensed to drive on the road.
Then, and only then, can speed limits be increased.
Btw, older drivers need refresher courses. Drivers in their 30s, 40s, 50s, can be bloody nongs behind the wheel.
