[QUOTE="gregcwho, post: 527876, member: 9378"] Yes..speed thrills, but not on a public road especially in our region where a lot of people overrate their car & their own capabilities..& not to mention a lot of people have their own 'interpretation' of the road rules.. If a country like Germany where there is unlimited speed autobahns & where our beloved UDMs are developed are now starting to clamp speed limits on a number of their autobahns due to the horrendous carnage year after year on those said autobahns..the reason seems a foregone conclusion.. In fact if I remember correctly, ADAC (Allegemeiner Deutscher Automobilclub) which operates a helicopter emergency response team busted their budget due to a significant increase in call outs due to accidents on the Autobahn..& they are calling for a speed limit to be imposed, hence the limit nowadays on a lot of stretches of the Autobahn. That in a country with excellent road system & better disciplined drivers.. Yes the environment plays an impact but we as drivers need to take that into consideration & react as needed,to just put the blame on the environment is akin to blaming others & not taking responsibility for our own actions..& I think that is a major reason why a lot of accidents occur..everybody blames the other party (other driver,environment,other car,etc..etc..) but fails to take responsibility themselves in an accident..
