what's the correct speed for it though?
saw a car doing 30km/k, slowing down from that on uphill corners. slowing to stop and then creeping downhill corners, and coming to dead stop anytime there is oncoming traffic. is that closer to the correct speed?

The opening of the US$5m port facility in Guayaguayare yesterday signifies a merging of the energy and maritime sector and major development for the south eastern region.
This according to Energy Minister Kevin Ramnarine, who opened the Fish Landing Facility and the Energy Port at Galeota. State-owned National Energy is responsible for the two facilities.
Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar was expected to deliver the feature address but it was instead read by Ramnarine.
With Budget Day on Monday, Ramnarine said suggestions from business groups were being taken into consideration.
He said: “We continue to monitor and record the progress of the diversification sectors, but we must ensure continued focus on energy as it is central to our nation’s prosperity. It is a century-old indigenous sector that accounts for just over half of Government revenue.”
“We have placed the continued progress of economic diversification as a top priority. At the same time, our energy sector is strong and can be further strengthened by continued, robust infrastructure development,” he read.
The port was a key part of the national economic growth strategy that focused on seven strategic business clusters for development: energy, food, culture and creative industries, maritime, information communications technology (ICT), tourism and finance he said. It would also aid in licensing new exploration acreage.
The Ministry of Energy was about to award three licences for land-based exploration valued at over $US 900 million, Ramnarine said.
He said: “It is also estimated that the cost of this exploration phase will be in the vicinity of US$55 million and the possible investment arising out of development-related investment could be up to US$945 million. This is where the importance of the infrastructure support made possible by the Port of Galeota is really emphasised.”
Ironically although 90 per cent of natural gas came from the east coast, there was never adequate port and marine facilities to support that industry, he said, with most oil and gas companies having bases along the western coast.
Ramnarine said the port should become a hub for South American countries and could mean expansion of trade. The Coast Guard would also be based at the port, improving national security, he said. The establishment of the port would encourage an upsurge in commercial activity in the Mayaro/Guayaguayare area with an increase in demand for ship repair services, Ramnarine said. He also highlighted several Government projects to boost the energy sector, and what the new port would mean for the country.
Attending yesterday’s function were Minister of Community Development Winston “Gypsy” Peters and Public Utilities Minister Nizam Baksh, along with energy company executives.
