Re: Dangerous?
Speeding on the roads is not "Liberté". It infringes on everyone else's road use, and their liberties.
You're missing the point. The problem isn't usually speeding, it's driving without paying attention. A blanket change from 90km/h to 80km/h on every single-carriageway road will not fix the problem. If anything it will make the roads more dangerous because people will have their eyes fixed on their speedometer in case they get a ticket for doing 81 in an 80 zone (and yes, I have had a ticket for doing 91 in a 90 zone in France. On a dual-carriageway in light traffic.). Changing the limit in specific, dangerous areas, is one thing. A blanket change to slow every road down is a nanny-state attempt to protect us from ourselves. Might as well set the limit to 5km/h, we'd all be safer then.
