We can and should be allowed to drive faster on our freeways and motorways; but don’t think governments will let it happen overnight.

I recently had a holiday in NT and the 130kmh speed limits make such a difference. Definitely felt a lot less fatigued than I expected I would for the distances I drove

Definitely think some highways in other states could be worth increasing the limit
