Doug Ford is the premier of Ontario. His brother Rob was the mayor of Toronto (Ontario’s biggest city). He was very famous for abusing alcohol and other drugs while in office, then he died of cancer.

Parent and partner, socialist and humanist, lover and nerd. I’m queer and genderqueer and disabled.
No GenAI. It’s bad for the environment and society and you.
I do JavaScript stuff for fun and profit.
I enjoy queer culture and general human-ness, tech and politics, and silliness.
Sometimes I pixel paint, shoot photos, weave chainmail, carve leather, make masto bots.

My understanding is, when they design a road they do calculate the “engineering speed limit”, the safe speed given road geometry and surface and visibility, etc., but then they mostly ignore it and assign an arbitrary limit from the standard list for that type of roadway.
We botched raising the limit for 400-series. We should have gone to 120km/h with actual enforcement, but what we did was 110 and a wink, and now 1 in 3 drivers do 130km/h.
