That’s too high for km/h though in my opinion. I really like that they lowered the maximum to 100 here a couple of years ago. It saves a lot of gas, is less bad for the environment and lowers the amount of accidents because the speed difference to trucks is not as big.
Over here it’s also not uncontested. In some places they raised it to 130 again because that was the only thing or previous government could make happen as the bunch of incompetent idiots that they are.
I suppose that would be fine for long straight stretches, though you’d still be burning a lot more fuel. I’ve never been there but it’s a very different situation compared to Dutch roads.
Speed limits should be in powers of 2, e.g. 16, 32, and 64. That’s all we need.
I assume that’s in miles per hour because otherwise it feels a bit limiting. I’d lobby for 128 to be included

As much as I like to sometimes drive fast I totally agree there should be a speed limit here, for all the reasons you stated.
Hi neighbour.

Yea I concur
Australia has 130 zones in the paved desert roads

Yep, dead straight. I think it’s the trucks that want those limits, it’s a long way between Darwin, Alice, and Uluru
If you think 64 is enough, you’ve never driven on a long highway through the middle of nowhere.
I could, if forced, allow 72, or 128. That’s the best I can do.
What psychopath is gonna drive 32??
Put the sign in binary. Now you’re driving 100000 and that feels cool
Granted. But it’s in MPH.
Fun fact: 1 mph = 1.6 km/h, so if your speeds 16, 32, 64,128 were in km/h, you’d have 10, 20, 40 and 80mph.
My ebike’s motor tops out at 72. I think we need 128
