I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.

Speed limits on motorways.
Speed limits in school zones because kids think fast cars are cool.
If parents could drive faster their kids would get to school quicker and they could start learning earlier
And stop learning earlier. Much earlier. And forever.
I’ve always joked that if we up the speed limit in school zones we’d end up with kids who are either smart enough not to run out into traffic, or strong enough to take on a speeding truck. In either case it would be a win for natural selection.
He said “motorways” which I’m pretty sure is just a British word for “freeways.” He’s not talking about school zones.
I’m English, I know. I was taking the piss.
You may be talking about the same thing I am, just using terminology more common in other parts of the world. By “motorways” are you only talking about highways/interstates? I can absolutely agree with THAT, but if by motorways you mean any roads, that might actually be a nightmare for side roads, residential, etc.
“Motorway” is UK English for a controlled-access highway like a US Interstate, German Autobahn, etc…
Cool, cool. That’s what I thought, but just making sure.
Then we agree.
Awesome, just wanting to make sure. Yeah I don’t think that’s a spicy take at all. Here in the states we already drove as if speed limits on highways don’t exist, it’s just a convenient revenue stream extracted from the ones unlucky enough to be picked out of the pack lol
Highway is just another word for a road between places, and interstate is obviously a term local to the few countries that have states and name motorways accordingly. It’s that more than one country? Motorway is the more international term.
Yeah, I was thinking that was the case, just wanted to clarify before I made a point that didn’t actually address anything the OP said.

Drag is proportional to the square of speed. Driving fast is very inefficient.
because it isnt. Accident rates on no-speed-limit strips are much MUCH higher than on restricted ones. There is a popular segment, where 120km/h was introduced, and lo and behold, accidents dropped dramatically. Populist politicians then REMOVED the limit again since “there are so few accidents, the limit is apparently nod needed”. Guess what happened? Duh.
Plus having everyone at roughly the same speed makes driving moe efficient. I got fasther through the netherlands where everyone drove exacly 100, than back through Germany, where you have everything between 80 and 160 and constantly have to switch lanes.
Fuck no speed limit!
I’m getting downvoted because people are dumb hermits. Had they ever driven across Europe they wouldn’t be downvoting.
Having said that - autobahn is not safe because of its design alone. Driving is an actual skill acquired in Germany in, I believe almost a year. UK, for instance, gives out drivers licenses to any schmuck who bothers to show up for the test.
I am implying making driving a skill that’s required to drive on the roads here, but the question was about a single item.
