I'm no perfect driver. But I do attempt at all times to drive/ride
within the my and my vehicles capability. Because I ride a bike I do
have a higher level of awareness and knowledge of the machine/road
conditions. I do have a higher level of experience having driven/riden
on most contries in Europe and the world in most summer, winter, snow
desert, jungle conditions. I have made mistakes in my learning but by
taking care about what I have done I have recovered unscathed from them.

*Can you say the same.*

According to the research done in Germany artificially low speed limits
on open high speed roads cause bunching or 'Schneller Verkehr-Stau'
which is the major cause of multiple accidents. The Germans believe that
it is worth burning more fuel than putting people in hospital. In our
country because of the way the state is funded it looks better to
restrict speed to reduce the fuel consumption of cars on motorways and
tolerate the high cost of hospitalisation of accident victims.

I have a sneaky suspicion that you believe you are infallible if you 
drive at the speed limit.
