Yes, sometimes you can travel more comfortably going faster on a corrugated road, but it is risky when you come to a corner, because the physics are like aquaplaning. So if an unsurfaced road has a max speed of 100kmh (normal here) my speed may be 25 to 40kmh in the wet and even greater than 100kmh in the dry in daylight. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
