One trip across there we saw 6 cops (3 marked, 3 mufti) and a camera van. It's a single raod, and less than 150kms, FFS.

Im fairly sure the speed limit has been 100 kmph for a while now, not sure why so many are slow at learning.

enjoy the walk throttle controller.

im cool with 100 kmph as a spped limit personally, if I go over and I do the thats my issue and fine and penalty, if I get caught.

Its not so much what the safe speed is, its how fast you need to slow down in the event of........... happening, thats why its 100 kmph.

From a faded memory of a documentry somewhere sometime cars are fairly safeish at a collision at 56kmph, they base the 100kmph and reaction times to slow down to 56kmph in the event of............happening so as to get you into this safeish zone if needed. i.e 100kmph + reaction time = 56 kph (averagely of course) that applies to cars, but one rule for all has to apply.

Dont speed if you dont want to walk

Swings and roundabouts,we speed,we sometimes get caught,well for me anyway.And agree the bandit is an easy beast to find you're doing 150km without realising,but that is no excuse,neither is speedo error,but my invoice was for 118km and thought I was doing 123-8km when disco lights started at night.
