Please no GTR ecu bullshit that takes off the limiter when you're on the track.
I was born a HUMAN. I was raised to test my limits, and break them. I refuse to conform to the general consensus because I'm a MAN. I am a Man with common sense. I believe in Darwinism and whatever the fuck those Church people believe in.
Tkaing my factory speed limiter is taking away my pride, soul, and dignity. I refuse to be sheltered, and I expect the same respect that everyone else in Europe gets. No drinking limits, and no speed limits on certain highways. I believe in paying the cop to get away from a ticket. I believe in attempting to kill myself by going way faster than the car should from the factory. I believe that China will take over the world.
Because I'm a man. I am Chinese Born Canadian.
Taking away my speed limiter is taking away my freedom.
So I say FUCK YOU to whoever agrees to this bill. We need more Burnouts (fuck Yeah) and less Commuter grocery getters that barely hit 150.
I have a 4 Liter V8 that was designed in the late 80's and was electronically limited to 260 (before I took it off). I expect my future cars to do more and better than that speed.
Because I am a Man. And I need the feeling of almost killing myself.
Otherwise, I would drive a Corolla. | woww dude
but this isn't gunna happen, the average speed on the highway anyways is like 150/160... well atleast for me.

Stupid. What about times when you have to go faster to get out of the way of something? Like while merging or changing lanes. Granted it may have been a mistake that got you there in the first place, you should be able to get out of it.
What about passing? You go in the other lane and you can't go faster than a certain speed. Stupid...

Er, yeah.... mph, is what I meant. Either way, my point was that cars already are limited to certain speeds.

Yeah, but I hardly ever hit 249 km/h...besides if they lower it to 150 right now, would you really be surprised if they start lowering it more and more as time goes on....

Canada is a tiny automobile market. It's doubtful that the auto manufactures would allow this to happen without some resistance. Basically this would only happen if/when it happened in the US.

110kph? I do road trips every few months to Vegas and there are stretches that with 80-90mph speed limits.
What's really needed is freakin radar in all cars that prevent people from tailgating...

lowering the national speed limit to an all time 10 km/hr will not decrease accident rates
increasing the skill and awareness of drivers, on the other hand, will
there are in fact people who cant even negotiate a left hand turn from a standstill smoothly - have you ever seen ppl hop curbs? AND end up nearly on the other lane, doing 8km throughout the whole turn? (usually this is when shit happens, as they cant even see the other car turning right at the same time, thus resulting in the 2 parties getting shafted by ic fucking bc the next day)
in fact, take a stroll down any parking lot, and observe how many wheels are curbed, how many cars are dinged from low speed impacts. for every 1, slit your wrist with a razor. by the time you are done 1 parking lot, you have probably killed yourself enough times to cover 50% of bc's population
what Chopstick is trying to say here, is that speed is less an issue than, say proper awareness (how fast to go in a ford astro van on a rainy day with 3 shitty bald tires, 2 underinflated, 1 over inflated, on a twisty highway road, wearing no seatbelts, thinking he can stop in time if the car he's drafting decides to slam on the brakes)
just googie top gear finland, and you'll see the light
so instead of teaching retarded monkeys not to cross the yellow line
give them a book and a bannana. the retarded monkey now becomes a smart banana
