Default Re: Miscellany

It never happens in the UK that speed limits end with a 5 - they're always multiples of ten. The only exceptions are not on true roads - you might see an occasional 5mph or 15mph limit on a hospital car park or similar.
At one time the USA seemed to prefer the X5 numbers: the limits were all like 25, 35, 45, 55. I don't know if that's still the case.
