Such a waste... What is the point of this? Why would there be such a law? I would say 95% of people never drive their cars anywhere close to their top-speeds! The only way you could even legally do that is if you went to a race track! (though I suppose if you were in certain European countries you could just drive on one of the "no-limit" freeways )

And also, if we had the same law here in the US (which we obviously don't) then when you are watching those high speed Los Angeles-style freeway chases on the news, the tires of the fleeing car wouldn't blow out like they do, and that wouldn't be fun to watch at all! )

I am surprised about the Metro also, that it can go 90 mph. But still, that is not fast at all. Even my dad's old '86 Camry can go faster than that!
