The place where I live has a speed limit for bike streets, so entire streets that are designated for biking only, of 30 km/h. Maybe annoying to some, but if you think that 30 plus 30 equals 60 when two people approach each other, I mean that can do some serious damage. Most people I see driving bikes regularly travel only 15 km/h anyway.
Funniest thing though is, even if I drive 50 with my bike on a normal road, cars will still overtake me out of principle, even though that’s exactly the posted speed limit. And speed limits apply to bikes here as well.
