Jinji Expressway - Speed Limit and Scenery

Speed Limit and Scenery

There is a pretty uniform speed limit of 110 km/h, albeit national legislation raising it to 120 km/h (which is the speed limit it was actually designed for.)

The expressway cuts through a vast area of emptiness. The scenery heading south is that of plains and farmland. Remarkable also are the design of the toll gates, ranging from the fancy to the downright weird.

Famous quotes containing the words speed, limit and/or scenery:

    “It was undoubtedly the feeling of exile—that sensation of a void within which never left us, that irrational longing to hark back to the past or else to speed up the march of time, and those keen shafts of memory that stung like fire.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “Today, the notion of progress in a single line without goal or limit seems perhaps the most parochial notion of a very parochial century.”
    —Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

    “In the wildest nature, there is not only the material of the most cultivated life, and a sort of anticipation of the last result, but a greater refinement already than is ever attained by man.... Nature is prepared to welcome into her scenery the finest work of human art, for she is herself an art so cunning that the artist never appears in his work.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
