Every day the police and others have to deal with people who have worked out an "appropriate speed" and then crashed. Note also that a speed limit is a maximum speed, not a target speed or a minimum speed. Believe it or not motor vehicles have controls that allow the operator to proceed at a lower speed than the limit as well. So... Drivers are not capable of assessing an appropriate speed - and speed limits may well be higher than the appropriate speed? We're all doomed, or what? -- Ian D |
