Speed Limit


How often have you break the speed limit set on the road? Verbally everyone's usual answer will be every now and then. But in their heart, they know its otherwise. Well, I for one, really, truly, honestly telling you that every now and then I will try and not break the speed limit law. I mean it is rather ridiculous, driving at 110km/h on the highway especially. It is reasonable if you are driving in a full loaded truck, or a very old/problematic vehicle, try hoping into a car that has the technology of at least a Myvi, it is hard to obey the speed rule.

 If your windows takes only minutes to boot-up, it is consider a good thing (in the golden days), but hit the start button, sit down, send a sms, look at screen (1minute +- from booting), if you don't see your desktop, it is slow.

Now, take a look at the top speed. Last time achieving 80km/h is consider very fast, now, try driving 80km/h on the highway (left lane), trailers & buses overtakes you like no one's business.

Just the two simple example dictates that evolution is happening. Technology especially. When it was dangerous to drive over 100km/h last time (think of driving a kancil660cc @>120km/h), it is now safe to drive at 120km/h, well that depends on your vehicle of course. Even a Myvi can drive @120km/h safely. Imagine other brands such as Toyota/Honda, don't let me get started with VW/BMW etc.

I get it if you can drive 110km/h on the highway, but some roads, demanding you drive 60km/h is downright ridiculous, if not mistaken one of the is between the Putrajaya exit (North-South Expressway) and Maju Expressway.

Ultimately, I do hope that instead of of making the 110km/h to 1x0km/h, lets make it minimum 100km/h on the right lane, if you are slower, then you in deep shit.

Part 2 is the real issue that I wish to highlight. Stay tune.
