Are you insinuating that not every law is logical and well thought out?

Exactly.
I personally know a guy who wrote traffic law act and road transport act here in Poland + some smaller regulations and I know how mamny colliding interests have to by satisfied by such law, group of interests etc. Press is bad this days for motorists and everyone is obsessed with safety and ecology - thus speed limits. That's all.
I often have impression reading passionford that you guys have been work on by safety propaganda for far too many years and don't consider those things free of it.
By the way what is the point of owning car faster then Smart if you really obey all those?
Once again - polease consider that I'm strange rally nut from far away country with extremly high car-accident mortality rate and road network similar to that of Britain's in XIX century.
