(SA) opinions of the 100km (formally 110km) speed limits

[Placey]

Post your thoughts of the drop in country road speed from 110 to 100..

How does it affect you.

How do you think this makes the roads safer or worse.


I for one think that it is very dangerous, as peoe are used to sitting on 110, if a caravan etc is infront on a long stretch of road and you do proceed to overtake the vehicle infront doing 90, the distances are different, and this causes frustration, in my opinion forcing people to "fly" past them at speeds of up to 120,130 etc. I don't see how this is safer.


On SIMPLE note from me.

Guns don't kill people, people do..
ROADS aren't unsafe, the people driving with lack of confidence are!

Bring in subsidized driver safety and awareness courses and have a physical driving and basic defensive driving courses compulsory upon completion of "L" plates..


Rant finished.
