Most people are doing 140-160km/hr. Have I experienced people flying by at those same speeds in 50 or 60 zones? Ya, and trust me when I say you can tell the difference if you are paying any kind of attention. The fact you all seem to think that it is near impossible or extremely difficult to gauge this kind of speed is disturbing to me. The fact you are even on the road and can't spot cars going various different speeds is scary.

It’s a little different when you’re in a 120km/h zone and people are going 140-160 and a 50km/h zone and someone doing 140.
A more apples to apples example would be if you were in a 120km/h zone with lots of traffic, cars, people and distractions waiting to turn left and someone is going 400km/h
Someone said it before that it was probably dr. Hui seeing the first car coming at about speed limit so he judged his turn on that and didn’t see the Audi. No one in their right mind would of expected someone to be going 3x speed limit
And no one will ever know if your experiences are exact or not. The other car could of been going only 100/h for all we know. You make it sound like these speeds happen all the time
