Abstract

The three components forming the road transport system, the road, the vehicle and the driver, together have a speed potential which is higher than the highest speed limits and of course considerable higher than the lowest limits in urban areas. While car drivers in general accept speed restrictions, the actual level accepted varies among them. The most significant factor is perhaps not the speed limit itself, but the gradual increase in speeds of road traffic.
