    By that logic, Americans should use km/h instead of mph. Going 0-100 is much better than 0-60. For the same reason you keep telling us why Fahrenheit is so much more intuitive.

        You guys have a lot of Max 100 zones?

        Because in km/h, we got lots of those

        Also you calculate acceleration using 0-100 mph?

          I think the highest speed limit I have seen in America is 85mph, which is around 135km/h. Typical highway speed limits though are 65mph, but everyone goes 5-10 over (105-120km/h).

          The nice thing about mph is the whole mile a minute at 60mph. Makes it easy to mentally estimate time of arrival.

            Highest I have driven on is 130km/h, but it has no speed enforcement.
