If you lower the speed limit on busy roads, traffic as a whole flows much faster. Going slower actually makes you go faster. Speed limits are mostly designed to smooth the flow of traffic. My experience on the road suggests almost nobody understands this, I think they're the most ignored rules we have. People either too fast or too slow, and all they're achieving is creating traffic jams. Again why I think the car is an absolutely useless type of mass transport. No other mass transport method allows so much individual discretion. It can't work, ever. https://www.sydney.edu.au/business/news-and-events/news/2018/12/21/does-slower-driving-make-us-go-faster-.html
