What a lot of misguided twaddle
1.Judging your speed by someone else's vehiclel assumes too many dangerous issues. Not least of which is that they may be driving too slowly. WHICH IS an offence, by the way. And one of the major causes of road rage IMHO
2. Not only is it dangerous not to speed it will result in more deaths and accidents, as is shown by all the current statistics. All traffic regulations are premised on the fact that Safety comes first. So for example overtaking requires an increase in speed to overtake and then a speedy return to the original lane to ensure a safe move. Especially if the vehicle being overtaken is more than 5kmh under the limit.
3. Has anyone talking about speed, as the main issue, ever looked at the points and fines for apparently unenforced transgressions such as driving in the right hand lane on roads where the limit is above 80kmh. It is more points and more money than speeding at the first level in Vic. Guess what they struggle to enforce it but they rate it above speeding???
4. More accidents are caused by tiredness (boredom) and lack of attention than anything . Higher highway speeds have been shown to reduce this, but revenue drops considerably.
Oh well....had my say...nothing will change. we need a party prepared to prove its claims that 5kmh makes a difference, Totally corrupt statistics there, by the way.
