That’s like 18mph. That’s insanely slow unless the place is super dense. It would literally take me hours to cross my city alone at that speed.

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's a dense city but 30kmh is way too slow. For such a left leaning city pretending to care about the environment, this is dumb considering how inefficient it is to drive at that speed

Ridiculously inefficient. My best economy is at 47mph. I get about 20% of my peak below 20mph.

My neighborhood is 20mph and it costs me more concentration to keep it that low than cruise 25-30 and be on the lookout. Apparently concentration on riding my brakes is safer.

I'm a shit driver

30kph is normal in many places in Europe and doesn't cause any of the problems mentioned ITT

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

My truck idles at 18mph. So yeah, 20 is a pain.
