Sweden temporarily "removes" speed limit on 120 kmph (75 mph) roads. - Polidicks

[QUOTE]On December 4, 2011 was the free speed of 120-roads in Sweden. What may sound like a April Fool, but has its roots in the ambiguities of what actually is the maximum speed in Sweden. When the Transport Administration estimated that the seven highways that thanks to a high level of security will be 120 km / h speed limit, there was a glitch in the text, which reads: "Vehicles may not be at a higher speed than 110 kilometers per hour.Transport Administration may issue regulations to the maximum speed on a highway shall be 120 kilometers per hour. " National Police says that in the introductory text of the penal directory does not include support for the police to give speeding tickets on 120 routes. Because of the unclear legal text, the police have issued a letter stating that no one who drove too fast on the current roads to get speeding tickets. - It is impossible to prosecute. Because the law is questionable, our staff not to report anyone who exceeded the 120 right now, confirms police superintendent Anders Arvidsson at the National Police for the technology world. Does this mean that it is free speed? - No, it does not, but there is no room to sanction the law and it means that the person driving 120 driving too fast without knowing it because the max speed really is 110. Instead, reports are not at all to avoid a discussion. It also means that anyone actually been fined for speeding on the affected roads with discount on his sentence of ten miles an hour.Anders Arvidsson take the example that anyone who caught for 133 km / h will be punished because they run 13 km / h too fast, and not 23 km / h. - Then it is better that we leave it at that until this gets fixed. It feels more right not to report for something that feels very strange, says commissioner Arvidsson of technology world, but it depends also on how the situation looks like. You may be reported for careless driving but not speeding. The relevant passages are: E4 North Uppsala - Mehedeby E18 West Enköping E20 West Mariefred - Eskilstuna E4 Norrgrann - Linkoping E4 Strömsnäsbruk - south Örkelljunga E6 Bastad - Heberg, variable speed E6 Heberg - South Värö-Back[/QUOTE] [URL]http://www.teknikensvarld.se/2012/01/03/27422/avslojande-fri-fart-pa-120-vagar/[/URL] Article translated with Google. The deal is that there has occurred a small error in the law book that states that 110 km/h is the highest allowed speed while 120 km/h roads exists in Sweden. So the police has decided to not register people that are driving past the 120 speed limit. [SUB]Although you can still get caught if your driving causes danger to the people around you. [/SUB]

Well, we care about people. Sweden is a brilliant place.

Koenigsegg is going to have a field day.

Ghostrider frowns upon this.

Please correct the OP as it jumps between miles and km per hour. I'm assuming everything needs to be in km? EDIT: talking about this "Vehicles may not be at a higher speed than 110 [B]miles per hour[/B].Transport Administration may issue regulations to the maximum speed on a highway shall be 120 kilometers per hour. "

Wish we even had a highway in NY you could do 70, The highest is 65 and thats only on tiny bits of the throughways
