In fact strikes are against government plan to raise the retirement age, so not limited to public transportation. Since a few years a minimal service should be guaranteed in public transportation, but people are always using personal transportation during strikes.

The speedometer is red lined at 50km/h which is the main city speed. Lots of cars also have redlines at 90, 110 & 130km/h (56, 68 & 80mph) which are more common speed limitation. Stock max speed at 180km/h (111mph) but it should be higher now, if tapped chloroplast could survive

I'm usually doing steady speed at 70km/h (43mph) or P&G at 70-85km/h (43-53mph).
