Convention centre roads
Hey guys an girls,
i got pulled over on the convention centre doing 40 and i was confused on what i had done wrong it turns out apparently its 20 along the convention centre road................ When i probed the police man about the speed sign from the place i entered the road to the point i was pulled up he couldnt point it out to me... turns out the speed sign is right on the road about............... Far as i knew it was illegal to place speed signs in an intersection as the driver really doesnt have a chance to view these signs i know i wouldnt im to busy looking to the right to make sure i can go thru the round about. I didnt get fined as the police man agree'd (eventually) the speed limit is stupid i wasnt really going a crazy speed. My arguement is why the hell is a school zone 40 and the convention centre road (both roads) 20 shouldnt it be the other way round ? i understand on the roads that they are doing construction on... as i left the wharf i did 20 and i had cars honking at me.... its far to slow ..

Way back before the convention centre, there was one sign for the warf area that was in the middle of the downhill road, at the back of territory house. That, and the other side as well. Nothing while in the warf precinct. Which is fine, and the road I was on, 60 was an ideal speed, I got pinged. I no complain, even though it was clearly targetted. Oh well.

a- there is heavy constructions going on there and some of the road is dirt
b- there are a few blind corners making people go 20 will probably save the life of some bob the builder, so drive slow and take care.

mean while its 40 at the hospital and 30 near the mental build 4 area
go figure.. its a stupid speed. drive from one side of the wharf to the other at 20 and see how long it takes.. 40 in a school zone is good slow enough to stop in a hurry and you have the right amount of time to see dangerous situation.. but 20..... watch out i might crash my car .... next time your out driving do 20 down a decent size road and just see how slow 20 really is my cruise control only sets at 40 wont do 20..
