Once I passed my tests, I left ICBC going right back up to the 'normal' speed on the roads

I was constantly going 10-15 over the limit (which was the flow of traffic) when I was doing my road test, examiner told me in the end he felt safe and I was doing everything else properly so he gave me a pass LOL

lol whoever wrote this response editorial sounds like they didn't even bother reading the original article and are just spouting the same boilerplate material politicians have used for years in years in defending the speed limits

Editorial: Highway speed limits should not be raised | The Province

in regards to RELATIVE speed, majority drivers on the highway need to learn that the LEFT fucking lane is for passing.

whats painstaking is being stuck behind a car in the left lane who is driving PARALLEL to the guy to the right of him.

I keep telling people not to speed over 40km/h not because it's unsafe, but because BC is super poor and are out for a cash grab. If you have the need for speed, just do it across the border where the speed limit is already at impoundment levels here locally! Doing 20-30mph over the limit down there seems to the the norm.
