Oops ot sidetracked before following it up

You would think that it would a percentage of all the cars speeds during the day? It would make sense and follow common sense.



But NO!!!!!!!!!


It's the speed of the 85th car. So if car 85 tanks through like a twat that's what counts

It would be so funny if it wasn't true
