    “Sensible.” If that were the speed limit in the US, we’d probably need to triple the amount of asphalt on the ground to handle the gridlock of people being limited to 18MPH.

      If cars were that useless we’d build a proper train network. I’m sure Texas would try to build a highway to accommodate it though.

        If you think it’s bad now imagine how bad it would be if every trip took 2-5 times as long meaning you’d have 2-5 times the amount of cars on the road at any given time.
