130 is extremely rare. even 110 is very rare tbh (interstate type roads, and they can often be 100 too)… 80 is our common “fast” speed in metro areas

Yeah, but those highways have like 5 cars and 10 trucks per hour (if that) and none of them are within 1000km from 99% of the population. Slight hyperbole, but they are genuinely only in the deep rural areas. 260k people in 1.4m square kilometres. Every where else top speed is 110, which is between city highways in good condition for the most part.
