Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's a limit not a minimum

Fun fact: some car speedometers are usually set to show speed faster than what you are actually driving at, which can be tested with GPS. Also, the German Autobahn exists and limits are generally set to prevent accidents when accidents are liable to occur.

When people are generally horrible about determining when they have to drive carefully (or simply because local governments need more funds), they get treated as hard limits, but enforcement and usage varies widely. It and the backlash it would receive is the reason traffic enforcement hasn't begun requiring and/or subpoena'ing people's routes through GPS to automatically fine them when they exceed the limits, something they could easily do in today's world. If you take that as saying that you can drive however you want though, you just need another asshole like yourself to have an accident.
