Poll: Should the speed limit be reduced to 70kmh on rural roads?

Rhonwyn Newson Reporter from Rodney Times

A landmark report by an inter-governmental organisation with 59 member countries - including New Zealand - is recommending that rural roads that don't have median barriers should have their speed limits lowered to 70kmh.

Taken literally, that would mean that almost NZ's entire roading network, state highways included, would need to have their speed limits reduced to 70kmh. Only those section of motorways with median barriers would be allowed to retain their 100kmh limit.
