hahah Pwnd.... its about time some other places share the same crap we Ontario drivers do.. besides.... cars may have changed since the 70s... but the drivers haven't... still drive like idiots when their ego gets to them...
also... they monitor traffic and change the limits accordingly.. if the limit hasn't changed on your road for over 10 years, that means its fine the way it is...
welcome to the future. I rather have my car impounded then being crushed.... which is what would happen here in Ontario ... (depending on the type of car and speed)

this is BS. I agree for residential and school zones but even on the highways ?Cars these days stop and handle ten times better than the cars in the 70's when these speeding limits were introduced.
Got to love the municipal government! I mean, Toronto has the stunt driving thing when driving 50 km/k over and it just boosted the paralegal business as they can now say that the law is unconstitutional and they can get the offenders off some of the repercussions but the insurance system there will eat you alive for 5 years after the event. Now Vancouver saw the cash grab here we go!
