Why cant people stick to the speed limits? and for those who said speed doesnt kill, you are watching too much top gear or something:nonono:

It's been proven that speed does not kill you. It's the sudden stop if you crash that does. :rollsmile:

Apparently, Germany has a lower accident rate and a lower fatality rate than SA, despite their autobahns with no speed limit...

In the event of an accident, high speed is detrimental, even fatal. However, it would be incorrect to say high speed = accident or death.

Also, it isn't about the top end runs, its about the overall vibe and getting to meet the familia!

So much for a free country. :nonono:

WTH are u talking about:thumbdo:

What I mean is that the goverment is more worried about people that are speeding, I understand that speeding is illegal but they have bigger problems, that they are the people that pay thier taxes instead of worring about the real crime that is going on like rapes and murders.

Yeahhh!!! :grin:

Until I had to go home. Strange enough I caught up with the matt orange wrapped 135i just before Van Buuren offramp. Was strange, since we were the only guys left at the Wimpy

problem is that the r21 was exciting with all the roadworks, accidents and traffic before the etoll. now that its a wide open long road, we have to make it exciting otherwise you fall asleep. falling asleep at the wheel is worse than speeding. right?
