increasing performance of motor vehicles, increasing traffic, and increasing non-motorized vehicle (bicycles, pedestrians) traffic.
For the last twenty years you can pretty much point to the increased revenue that tickets generate when the speed limits are set less than the roads can safely support and less than the speed at which most people are comfortable driving.

In 2022, Great Britain introduced a 60mph national speed limit for vehicle users under the Active Travel Act. Additionally, some regions have implemented variable speed limits on motorways to manage traffic flow and improve safety. These changes aim to address road safety concerns and promote more sustainable modes of transport.
Studies have shown that raising speed limits can lead to an increase in traffic fatalities. However, the relationship between speed limits and death rates is complex and influenced by various factors such as enforcement, driver behavior, and road conditions. It is important to consider the overall impact on road safety before making conclusions about the effects of raising speed limits on death rates.
The average speed limit in the United States is typically around 55-65 mph on highways and interstates, and 25-35 mph on urban roads. However, speed limits can vary greatly depending on the specific location and road conditions.
Yes, as long as it's traveling through the same material. If it enters adifferent material, like water, glass, jello etc., then its speed changes.

QE2's average speed (service speed) is 28.5 knots. A more interesting fact - however - is that the average speed over her entire 39 year service life - including time spent stationary in ports or when being refitted - was around 24 knots. This speed is actually faster than most cruise ships can achieve at maximum speed. The reason for QE2 having such a high speed is in order to be capable of maintaining a 5 night transatlantic crossing schedule - she needed 28 knots for that - but she needed more to 'catch up' if delayed, or caught in a storm etc.
coz there has
because there have been too many accidents. changing the speed limits means there is a decreases in accidents
becasue people are stupid and drive to fast lol
Because people are going too fast on the road.
Speed limits in Britain are quoted in miles per hour and in Europe they are quoted in kilometres per hour.
Because of the amount of accidents that happened they had to lower it to 40mph and i like cake and jack brown is gay ""!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for the lulz British roads are typically very narrow while there are a few "highways" as we know them they still are small compared to our interstates. Because of the narrow, winding roads and the high cost of petro "gasoline" speed limits have remained on the slow side.
Speed limits change for lots of reasons. Limits have changed to conserve fuel and for accident reduction.
== == There have been so many crashes in the last 100 years so the speed limit has changed to accomodate this and reduce the crashes on British roads
Advances in technology
Cars have got a lot faster and the roads have improved to allow these speeds. The other side of increased speeds has been the increase in accidents and the terrible cost to human life and also the financial cost to not only the cars but the economy. This has required that the speed limits come down. It has also meant that associated costs and insurance costs go up.
In France the u can reach as high as 130mph and in great Britain u can reach 80mph In France the limit in 120mph UK its 110mph In France the limit in 120mph UK its 110mph The speed limit in the UK is not 80mph, it is 70mph Immature.
