Wrong fight to pick... This is such a controversial issue in Germany (see other comments already here), for this marginal improvement in emissions... people will feel like they are already being impacted by government restrictions and refuse to do more, when switching to an electric vehicle (there's also lots of voices "you can pry my combustion engine from my cold dead hands") would halve the emissions today, let alone when the grid is properly renewable and not running on coal and gas with a whiff of wind. It seems like the wrong battle to fight to me. Also for myself: for most trips, I already drive 90~100 km/h on German highways, basically truck speed such that they don't have to overtake me and I'm not a nuisance, but very occasionally I want to save time and drive 120-140. We already buy green power from a provider that actively builds out renewable energy (still, we draw from the gray grid, but we do what we can), and sooner or later we'll be able to get charging infrastructure in a future home and get an electric vehicle. In such a scenario, why should I be impacted by others driving continuously fast in their combustion vehicles? If the goal is lower emissions, why isn't the solution allowing it only for emission-free vehicles? Every vehicle already has a green sticker to be let into low-emission zones, speed cameras can see them as well. For most people not to feel impacted, the limit would have to be around 140 km/h, but then there's no point: the article already says that 130 helps a lot less than 100 km/h (as in, 4 versus 1.5 Mt, on a total of 148 MtCO2e for the sector). They'll also never get 100 km/h to pass, so any middle ground (such as 120) will have two losing sides. Everyone is going to feel it's unfair, whether their reason is justified or not, and there are bigger 'favors' to ask of people such as home insulation, reducing beef/lamb consumption somewhat at least, installing a heat pump, using mass transit where available, etc.
