Do You Drive Over The Speed Limit??

Hank_Jones

Personally I always drive at least a few miles per hour (or k/ph bloody metric system) over the speed limit.
I honestly think that motorway driving is extremely safe and that even if you do crash at 120k/ph, you're screwed, so what does another 10 k/ph on top of that matter?

So does you drive over the speed limit?

There's a few roads about where the speed limit is mad-if you drove at 30mph on them you'd get blown off the road.
So sometimes i do yes...

I can't say that I don't.

Only if God says it's ok, he usually does.

How often do you get blown while driving?

I sure do.

The majority of speed limits in this country are a joke.

questionmark?

ah ya sometimes! Not through a town or near a school but out on a main road/dual cw/ motorway ya i would.

*damn IP address speeding ticket on the way

I do, people need to learn how to drive properly and the fact is a modern day car is maybe 10 times better at just about everything than a car from 20 years ago (which is where our laws are based). They brake better and they corner better.

I've seen people having a chat with the person in the seat beside them and they'll be just the kind of person that will complain when you pass them out and they'r just the kind of person that will do 80klm on the main road and keep doing it once they enter a 30 klm speed zone like those within a town or city.

The speed limit is a joke and just pandering to the most useless in society. Every person that drives a car should be thought to the highest of standards, they should know cars inside and out and know the physical limitations of the vehicle their driving.

I always did it when I had my license.

It's hard not to in Dublin.

The Speed limit is a joke in most places.

Hank_Jones

How about people who can't gauge how fast people in the other lane are going?
So they just pull out and about 5 cars have to slam on the brakes.

Hank_Jones

Driving at 30 k/ph is almost impossible.

To be honest I tried it once, didn't like it...so I never did it again.

Sprouts

We should impose a 30k speed limit on the M50 and speed ramps too. And maybe traffic lights every 50 yards just for the craic too just to be consistent with the rest of the roads in our blessed Republic

the limits on roads around dublin are a joke. i use the n4 for everything, 80km on a 3 lane road. i dont know anyone who doesnt break it to be honest. i speed on roads like that yet i wouldnt dream of going near the limit on some of the roads down the country where its 100km on a road with grass in the middle-suicide!

Have yet to see a road with grass growing in the middle of it with a 100klm speed limit.

On motorways i don't see the harm going 130km/h, that's the limit for motorways in most other European countries and their safety record is much better than ours.

And OP, the Metric System is cool:cool:

The metric system is not the future man.

Next you will be asking for a pint and nobody will know what the hell you are talking about because of the bloody metric system.
