    Overtaking does require going pretty fast to be done quickly, so they have an overall point that speed limiters set at the speed limit would de facto prevent overtaking. The rest of it is gibberish, and personally I’m fine with banning cars entirely let alone this quibbling lib minutia about speed limits but let’s be honest and say no overtaking with limiters

      If you can't overtake safely within the speed limit you can't overtake safely.

          no you can overtake someone going far enough below the speed limit that overtaking them doesn't mean speeding

            Never had this happen in my 20+ years of driving in rural areas outside of buses and tractors and the like. Any sedan or passenger car or anything like that going ~10 under the limit requires speeding or you will get in a head-on collision.

            So just be honest and say no overtaking other personal passenger vehicles
