Speed kills. It’s the message that we’ve had driven home for decades by law enforcement and the government. But it’s time to have a serious discussion about speed limits in Australia without the hysterics and put some cold, hard facts into the debate.

    Actually the biggest difference there is modern tyres.

    Agreed.

    Except if you fit the noname retreads/tyres that happened to be on special when you needed tyres and have no money, and have manufacturing dates from some years ago.

    Worse than driving on black ice.

    I always look at the reviews and buy the best wet handling tyre I can afford. That’s when things get squirelly.
