Ways and means to apply (//) - we can set a "recommended limit" with it, as an example 110km/h, BUT such a recommended limit must not then become 'prima facie', as that in turn has legal complexities.

Certain rural highways could safely adopt 130km/h, but realistically (//) on such 130km/h proposed roads would generally be a safer option to avoid the bunching-up effect.

We cannot use (//) or raise a freeway category road speed limits until the medians on them have full-length barrier, to do otherwise would be negligent.

In recognition of our wildlife, it is feasible that (//) or a higher limit could be applied as a daytime allowance, and then automatically reverted back to the rural 'default' 100km/h at night (dusk/dawn).

Ways and means of better managing speed limits or derestriction.
