OT- Speed limits in Italy
Sorry this is off topic, but I had to share it. I don't know if this is a hoax or not, but I found the following on Autoexpress.co.uk
Italy Raises Speed Limits
In a move which has outraged safety groups, Italy has raised speed limits in a radical bid to lower the annual 6,410 death toll on its highways.
Transport Minister Pietro Lunardi said it means a 93mph limit on motorways, and came about because research showed speed was only a factor in nine per cent of accidents. He added: "All psychologists and doctors say people who go faster drive better and are more careful." Richard Yarrow
Gotta love the Transport Minister's reasoning.
