Speed limits will be reduced from 80km/h to 60km/h from Friday the 7th of February in an effort to reduce road fatalities 🚘🛣️

🚗Later in the year, the speed limit on national secondary roads will go from 100km/h to 80km/h and the speed limit in urban cores will be reduced from 50km/h to 30km/h.

🚜The meaning of the rural speed limit sign will also change from 80km/h to 60km/h.

💰If caught driving over the speed limit, you will be issued three penalty points and a €160 fine.

"A strong motivation to engage in extra work and a fear of being overlooked [while remote working] has the potential to turn into over-commitment and self-exploitation, which could subsequently lead to higher levels of stress or even burnouts."

@MrHilariouskiwi @ClintVSmith I think everyone is overwhelmed and there are so many things to be outraged about that's it's impossible to pick one. We need one single issue to get behind
