if the Gomer-ment wanted to really reduce speeding they wouldve ADR mandated 110 kmph speed limited brand new factory cars 10 years ago ,,
Doing that would be one of the most ridiculous ideas ever!
Before you can me let me elobrate.
I drive a 48 seat coach as part of my job. I get everyone to work safely instead of having 48 cars driving 155km's round trip.
As you might know large vehicles are "limited" to 100km/h..fine....BUT....the bright orange Government owned SCHOOL BUS can do much more! It has overtaken me (whilst driving the work bus at 100kays) and simply driven away. I rekon it was at least doing 115-120 and its got KIDS ON IT!
The absolute worse bit with the bus is that it is limited (also geared to) to exactly 100. At 100.5 the limiter kicks in. You can forget trying to overtake anything doing 95.
We have 3 & 4 trailer road trains to overtake they do 60-70 up some of the hills and then they quickly get to 90+ on the other side which makes overtaking almost impossible. Now add impatient people in cars who then take INSANE risks trying to overtake me in the bus and the 4 trailer road train.
Sheer madness is limiting vehicles to the actual "speed limit".
It does not matter how you try to "limit" vehicles, people will always find a way around it.
The issue should be about better Driver Training and better roads.
Ask anyone who drove to Adelaide how good the roads aren't once you leave Perth. The further out of Perth you get the WORSE they get.
If the governments were serious about "saving" lives they would fix the roads and train new drivers better.
