There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

sounds great, good luck with it. not trying to put a downer on the roads, but i have heard their speed limits are quite low and their enforcement of them harsh. you'll need to find a stealth mode button

Standard speeds are 50kph in town and 100kph as NSL - but others can be applied but not above 100 - so thats 30mph and 60mph

Interesting bit is

Important

If a driver exceeds a permanent posted speed limit by more than 40 km/h, there is an automatic 28-day licence suspension.
If a driver exceeds a temporary speed limit by more than 50 km/h, there is an automatic 28-day licence suspension.
