"I take great pleasure in sticking to the limit, or *less*. Most especially 20 or 30 mph limits".

A lot has been said about sticking to the limit in 40 zones. What about all the "new" 40 zones that used to be National Speed Limit? Can I speed here?
A lot of these zones also now have double, solid white line, so if you get stuck behind "Mr 45 everywhere" you're really shafted.

N.B. Just because the limit is 30, doesn't mean that 30 is safe. Would you do 30 on sheet ice past a school in winter? "But officer, I was only doing 28 mph"[/quote]
