Thumbs down New 60km/h speed limits in NSW forest roads!! was 100.

Came across new signs down dirt roads today where I travel often.

Would you believe the speed limit has dropped from 100 to a flat 60 everywhere in forest areas in NSW!!

Is absolutely rediculous!

Last month I was able to safely travel at speeds varying from 30 to 100 or so depending on the conditions. I watch the road, not my speedo. Some parts you go slow as there are bumpy corners, some parts are massive wide smooth roads as big as freeways (just happen to be dirt) with no trees nearby for even a roo to jump out of behind) down hill you might even happen to hit 106! oooh!.

Now if I do 100 its :

More than 30 km/h but not more than 45 km/h over limit, 5 points $710, 3 month licence loss



and if 106km/h its : More than 45 km/h 6 points, $1,915, 6 month licence loss



Seriously what is going on!!
