Barely legal drivers

Speed is never the cause of an accident, it is only a multiplier that makes it worse.

I understand what your saying in some circumstances, but i dont agree with that, most single car accidents where the driver has lost control, and purely because they were going to fast to handle the car / the car to cope in the conditions...

Speeding is a difficult issue, because IMO, if your a good driver, you can drive at any speed, safely, because you understand the car, what you can do, and what the car can do, But if you just said drive at the speed you feel safe, all the useless drivers who dont have much feel for cars, would be crashing left right and center, because they just cant get a feel for how a car is reacting / would react etc...hence the need for speed limits I guess..

The ones that frig me off are the total pisstake limits, like around here, they have just put a random load of 40 limits in, for miles on end, which used to be national, all big wide clear roads...no need for it at all, just pointless....
