A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Given how many people treat speed limits as suggestions, at best, having your vehicle obey the limit would turn some people off of them.

Also with a critical mass adoption of self-driving cars the speed limit could be increased.

Only if the bicycle paths are separated from the road by a wall.

My city's solution to that is just to not have bike paths and tell people to "share the road" on 45 MPH streets.
