So the data actually confirms the 'common myth'.
- sjoc 4y agoActually, that's not what the chart says. It's not maximum speeds, it's all speeds. That includes many circumstances where you can't go that fast, e.g. due to slow traffic, accidents, speed limits etc. So 30% of all speeds surely is a lot.

- hugh-avherald 4y agoRight. Which is what I was pointing out. The chart disproves the point he was making.
