Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

That's too high for km/h though in my opinion. I really like that they lowered the maximum to 100 here a couple of years ago. It saves a lot of gas, is less bad for the environment and lowers the amount of accidents because the speed difference to trucks is not as big.

As much as I like to sometimes drive fast I totally agree there should be a speed limit here, for all the reasons you stated.
Hi neighbour.
Over here it's also not uncontested. In some places they raised it to 130 again because that was the only thing or previous government could make happen as the bunch of incompetent idiots that they are.
Australia has 130 zones in the paved desert roads
I suppose that would be fine for long straight stretches, though you'd still be burning a lot more fuel. I've never been there but it's a very different situation compared to Dutch roads.
Yep, dead straight. I think it's the trucks that want those limits, it's a long way between Darwin, Alice, and Uluru
Yea I concur
