Then they, too, are morons who need to understand the basic definition of the word limit.

As I said previously, I treat "the limit" as merely advisory.

Yes, but I may also be under the limit, when the limit is too high for conditions / location.

Lol

True

Driving over the limit in heavy fog is purely suicidal.

Anyone having lived in Lincolnshire (Scampton - Cranwell area) will know just how nasty the fog is, you can literally lose the road, seen a few people go through fences etc at T junctions.
Exceeding the limit.

That's a great shame Tengocity.

I'm not convinced nordberg knew what he wanted.

I did my best to help him.

I'd guess a reasonably sensible conversation or debate, so not what you want.
