Yeah.. I found it a bit scary when I was there last month....Love the way they swap from one side of the freeway to the other at 100kph
This might not be a QLD problem but it is definitely a Townsville one...

I am however still trying to work out a theory as to why everyone loves tailgating here- that still eludes me for the moment, but I am sure it is related to higher taxes and fewer new roads.

I put it down to our artificially low speedlimits......The drivers behind are trying to "egg on" the ones in front to speed up....

I am not sure what 'artificially low' means; if you are saying your limits here should be higher than they are now, I would in general disagree.

So are we saying we just set the speed limit based on what 85% of the people are driving? So say 85% of the drivers who drive 100KMH in an 80 zone, we should change the speed limit?
The Corolla is old and is in desperate need of redesign. No diesel option...
