That only works if you never drive your car outside your own country - or the speed limits never get changed in your own country.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Not many countries allow over 100mph on anything except motorways.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

I find it more tiresome to go slower than faster
faster in the outside lane keeping up with the traffic is a lot less tiring than going slower, constantly speeding up and slowing down to overtake and watching other traffic and their speed so that you can over take

Car speedos (unless they are GPS based) will also vary due to tyre pressure (which is linked to the temperature according to Robert Boyle) and the tyre/wheel size. As the tread wears down the speedo will read higher, if the tyre is under-inflated, the speedo will read higher. Basically, if the overall tyre+wheel diameter is not as per when the car was calibrated, then the speedo will read wrong.Comment
