@clemensnetherlands7331 Yeah, and Germany might not be that bad in terms of deaths, but Germany still has about twice the number of deaths pr capita of Norway where we do have strict and low speed limits.

9:26 That's a poor excuse, sorry... If you want to experience this get there soon. And no, speed limits isn't everything driver disiplin is even more important. But speed limits are still incredibly important.

@moomah5929 Yeah, most speed limits in Norway are 60, 70, 80 or 90 km/h. I've heard that 100 and 110 km/h roads do exist here, but I've never seen one myself. There's also places with speed limits of 30, 40 or 50 km/h... Speed cameras are networked, so average speeds achievable between two cameras only by exceeding the limits will land you with a fine. And exceeding the limits by over 20 km/h will cost you your license and depending on the situation (say in areas where children may be walking, near houses etc) could land you in jail here. That colleague of yours would definitely have landed in jail here as well as losing his license...

5:07 Higher speed limits would be a disaster in the US for a simple reason. You treat driving as a right rather then a privilege, and as a result you don't have high enough standards on driving education, regulation on car quality etc... Also, notice how Germany has 3,7 deaths or 100 000. Well, Norway had 1,8 deaths pr 100 000 in 2020... So less then half of what Germany has. And we have low speed limits and strict road laws.
