[@zoltanlovasz1681]

In my country this would have been 0 euro. For a 600 euro ticket you have to go at least 226 km/h on a highway (limit is 130).

[@VSPlum]

In Ukraine you can drive +19 km/h over the limit anywhere, police can't give you a ticket. But it will be aggravating circumstance if you've got into the accident while driving that fast, because it's illegal anyway, just without a ticket. And then speeding for +20-50 km/h costs about 8 Euro, 50+ km/h costs about 40 Euro. And the average salary here is only about 470 Euro.

[@safari5412]

I have followed Bjørn Nyland's reviews for many years. Always relevant and very entertaining. I think the 1000km test has played its part for Nordic followers anyway! The best cars are around 10 hours. If the time is to be reduced even further, very high speeds will be necessary and it will be too expensive! There are so many other aspects that you are testing that have greater informational value! Keep on your work!

[@brottochstraff]

Cars keep getting safer and safer, and roads keep getting slower and slower (at least in sweden and norway). In Sweden , Trafikverket has a "0 vision" meaning 0 deaths from traffic accidents. The only way for that to happen is to forbid driving all together. All roads get demoted from 50 to 40, from 70 to 60 etc - only few areas where highways are expandet get higher speed limit, all regular country roads just get slower and slower every year. Makes 0 sense to me.

[@catalicos]

I think 120 is ok for the tests, since most highways have 120-130 speed limits. With the upcoming faster charging cars, one could go even faster, but the reality is that the top speed limits should be a limiting factor anyway.

[@roffaleft499]

Nope, 110 is the highest speed limit in Norway.

[@lencox2x296]

I'm sorry for you @Bjørn Nyland. In Germany speeding is much cheaper :). For 17km/h over 110km/h limit on Autobahn would be 60€ and no dots. If the 127 was the measured speed they drop 3% tolerance which would be +13km/h and 40€.

[@roffaleft499]

In Germany they don't hit us with high fines (expect for the most outrageous cases, when going 50+ above the speed limit) for speeding. License suspensions for 1/2/3 months hurt equally as much. And don't forget the nasty fines for not maintaining a safe distance on the Autobahn!

[@Gazer75]

Problem is the people with money to spare don't care and just pay the fine and move on. If the price is high enough they might think again.

[@blower1]

Here in UK it's 3 points and only £100 fine - however it's the increase in car insurance that is really bad....if you have total of 6 points or more on your license your car insurance can double for years, and the points stay on your license for 4 years. This means you can effectively pay £1000's more for that one or two speeding incidents.

[@blower1]

@@gustav32451 In the UK at least you must report any points that you have on your license when you apply for car insurance - if you lie they have the ability to check with the DVLA, any lies that are uncovered are both fraudulent and will result in your car insurance becoming null and void.

[@10secondsrule]

If you go over 102mph in a 70 zone it’s a court case. I’ve learned myself. I was doing 107 on the empty motorway. Lost driving licence for 2 months plus a fine which was several hundred pounds, add court costs and new drivers licence cost. Not going to lie, sold my bike soon after as I took all the fun away from riding. But I am biker so it could be different as in the same court the guy before me was driving with no insurance and no driving license got 100 pounds fine and 6 points (on a drivers license he doesn’t have).

[@Gazer75]

I like that system with the insurance. People that manage to accumulate points like that should pay more.

Agreed. A rare traffic ticket is a cost of showbiz. Keep doing your thing, we all drive a bit over the speed limit on nice roads with no traffic. With all this driving this had to happen "before or the side" as we say.

And here I'm the weirdo who'd just like to do a little over 110 km/h on the speedo, to account for the always optimistic speedo. Also, is that fine tax deductibe?

[@therookienomore88]

A law is a law. Why should police have the right to decide what laws are enforced or not?

[@asharak84]

@@1966Birger speed limits are kind of there for safety but are a very crude mechanism - a safe speed varies massively with conditions, but the speed limit in most cases does not. Enforcing a hard limit in safe conditions is pointless (and very, very few serious accidents happen in safe conditions with a small bit extra speed - more often it is in less safe conditions, or huge speed, or driver falling asleep). Very few police enforce any meaningful safe driving limits in rain, fog, slippery conditions, heavy traffic, low sun etc which are all more dangerous. If it was about road safety they would be pulling people over for all of these scenarios, but they don't - because the eventual ticket is hard to prove and so can be appealed as it is more judgement based. So, it's an extra tax.

More likely to get reduced tbh. Consumption per distance traveled goes up a lot past 90. Fines should be based on income like in Finland. To low fines only make the rich dudes in fancy sports cars not really care. At least up to the limit where you accumulate points. Right now its 2 points if 16-20km/h over and 3 points >20km/h over.

The only 1000 km challenge figures that are worthwhile are those performed either at the speed limit or at least no more than 10 km/h of the speed limit. Otherwise, there is too much variability in speed that will affect the result. My feeling is the 1000 km challenge should reflect what real drivers can expect if they drive within legal limits (or very near legal limits). You could adjust the prior 1000 km challenge in your spreadsheet results to reflect the speed limit + 10 km/h mathematically if you have kept track of the charging time and average speed. All the best.

That isn't a thing in Norway. You can't change the number of dots you have. Only thing you can do is wait 3 years for them to expire by themselves. We also have rules against double punishments in Norway; so insurance prices aren't impacted by the number of dots you have.

For the kms you do surprised it doesnt happen more often but hey not like you're doing 150 everywhere nz is same i got done in nz 110 in 100 and 45 euros but again 150 is lose licence and $$$$ for less like no

IT IS THE SAFEST FORM TO DRIVE TO GO WITH THE FLOW, this is actually VERY interesting, because thought if there was a #speedlimit, people would actually follow it, but it seems most people even in #Norway seem to be annoyed by speed limits? (but they save a lot of energy!) which is unfortunate

[@fredrikoberg6544]

How is it possible that the car is incorrectly badged?

[@tesla-spectre]

here in CZ most speeding cameras are using average speed assessment. so if you pass a certain area (say 2-3 €km) too quickly you get fined depending on the average speed. much better than the spot cams where clever speeders use radar warners.

[@magnuslarsson337]

You must mean worse?! They have the average speed cameras in Norway as well; they are a disaster and suck the life out of your soil. I call the cameras Dementors…

[@tesla-spectre]

@@magnuslarsson337 no I mean what I say. They are the best because they stop people from speeding and just breaking for a sign. I am not in favour of speeding 😎 If they suck th life out of you, you might just want to stay in the limit...

[@asharak84]

average speed cameras are horrible - we have them for many miles here but you end up staring at your speedometer not at the road. This is not a good thing. Also speed limits that are the same every day are not about safety, they are about revenue - safe speed changes daily but hard limits don't. Spot cameras work very well - you put them before a more dangerous location such as a bad junction and the traffic there is slower. On areas of road with no junctions there is little need for slowing down traffic on good days.

[@asharak84]

@@logitech4873 sadly i have a tesla and cruise control basically doesn't work - it gets spooked and brakes hard too often so it's much safer to drive controlling the speed myself. A dumb cruise control would indeed solve the problem.

[@Rajonas007]

I always drive at the speed limit

[@agoatmannameddesire8856]

You should add a column for how much each car costs you in speeding tickets 😂

[@chunkychuck]

What are the dots? Points? Like demerits?

[@matteoponzetto6682]

Yes. You have a certain number of points, when they go to zero you loose the driving license and you need to redo the test

[@kingprone7846]

hes mistranslating. dot and point are the same word in many european languages.

[@kingprone7846]

@@matteoponzetto6682 you generally never lose points, you accumulate them. i actually dont know any country where you lose them.

[@torakef]

It is indeed called dots - likely comes from some old routine where the law used ink to put a dot on your paper permit to use a motor vehicle. Same here in sweden. Three dots = license revoked. Don't know how many dots you can accumulate in Norway?

[@MrBrannfjell]

@@kingprone7846 Wrong, in Norway points expire after 3 years.

Aren’t those V4 Supercharger cable holsters the stupidest thing you’ve seen Tesla do. Every V4 site I find I am going around picking one or two up - I know it’s a fruitless exercise but my OCD won’t let me do anything else 😂

[@coolaa]

The police here in Norway always complains about their budget, they want more. And from time to time they put away cases that very serious because of budget, so they claim. And still they drive a undercover police car in 2 am on Monday morning in a empty highway to give speeding ticket.

[@Gazer75]

This was a good example why as well :P If people didn't drive like idiots at night they didn't have to. Around here we don't have motorway and there is a one in a million chance at most that there is police on the roads, especially at night. They are to busy with policing in Bergen to care about the areas around it. I've called in drunk drivers and they are over an hour away so they can't do much.

[@crabapple1974]

Oof, sorry Björn :/ Tbh speeding accidentaly is very easy in Norway compared to Sweden. Two things that are different. In Norway they have speed limits every 10 km/h which makes it harder to by just looking on the type of road to distuingish what speed limit it is, way easier in Sweden where it usually is larger steps between the limits. Second, they dont have a speed sign after every intersection /joining road as here in Sweden. If you drive in the countryside and drive out on a big road it is hard to know what the speed limit really is. Also when driving on a smaller road it is hard to know if it is 60,70 or 80 or in town if it is maybe 40 or 50. Advantage I guess is that there are way less signs littering your view. I always drive the speedlimit in Norway but even then it is easy to get a ticket sometimes. I got one from driving in a tunnel (that has variable speed limit) then as I got out of it I saw the sign ahead of 80 km/h and speed up. Problem was that I was just coming out of the tunnel and had not passed the sign and the camera clocked me.... at 01 in the morning on an empty road. It was very little over the limit but still 4500:-

[@MrBrannfjell]

I drove once through sweden to get from south norway to north norway. It was a terrible experience, in sweden they would drop speed limit down to 70, just to put in a speeding camera, and put the limit back up to 100/110. Some roads do this multiple times each stretch, as if to intentionally wear down your brakes, test your focus and give you speeding tickets.

[@Gazer75]

Roads with the default of 80 are not signed. If there is a limit it will be signposted every 1000m at least. Impossible to miss tbh. I've never come across a road where I didn't know the limit.

[@latlak]

Man, why is there even a speed limit this low? I don't understand, your highways look clean, there should be no problem allowing 130 kph maybe? Maybe it's just me being German, but I'd go crazy.

[@bjornnyland]

The new motorways in Norway are actually constructed for 130 km/h limits. But national law allows maximum 110 km/h limit. We had 100 km/h limit as max for the longest time before it was barely raised to 110 just about 10 years ago.

[@Gazer75]

Heh.... I've said it many times. Just go +5 on speedo and you'll be fine. Just because "everyone else" go 10-20 over and doesn't care about the actual speed limit, you should too :P Problem if people keep doing this is what we get in these new cars with silly warning for speeding. Eventually we might end up with this being forced on us so we can't speed at all. Good luck overtaking people yo-yo driving then :P

[@ArturFlies]

Dude, you are doing car tests as part of the business. Should be able to deduct VAT from speed measurement 😅

[@Vitnir3]

Its going to be hard reviewing cars if your license is suspended

[@24robek]

You should also get a ticket for excessively using the left lane🤦‍♂️
