Nobody is gonna do jack shit cos speed limits are almost entirely revenue raising.

There is a road that used to be 100km/h it was all dodgy huge potholes u had to dodge etc. The government spent 6months making the road lovely and smooth making the corners nicer etc. They almost immediately after finishing changed the speed limit to 80km/h. I’m not saying this was explicitly revenue raising but they did have a speed camera sitting 200m past where the speed used to say 100km/h on the day they changed it.

NSW had also changed the law so that mobile speed cameras no longer need to give u warning ur speed will be checked like static cameras.

They also have 3rd party people managing speed cameras who get paid a COMMISSION.

Our speed limits are a perfect example of out nanny state and corruption working hand in hand to undermine our liberty and take our hard earned money.
