I agree with the 30km/h on residential streets. No one needs to go fast down in the burbs and houses where kids and dogs and driveways are, especially if there are larger arteries nearby to get you to a highway or something where the speed limit is 50-60.

40km/h down a commercial district would definitely drive me nuts though.
