well in my opinion, the law is stupid.
ok, you have a fast car that can do from 0-150km/h in 10 secs, and u have a slower car that can do the same speed in 17 secs.
So if someone still wanted to go that speed in a car, they would have an extra 7 secs to live before their accident?
and lets face it, how many cars nowdays can get to 150km/h, about 90% i would say?

Its hardly the top end speed that is going to kill you. Sure some of them might be going at those speeds and miss a turn, etc... but a lot of these accidents are also result of the inexperienced driver not knowing how to handle their high powered car. When they are trying to be a boy racer they nail it around the corner, break traction, plow into a tree, person, oncoming car, etc...
I honestly think its a good idea to limit the power to weight ratio for at least the first year of their P's. Passing a drivers test hardly qualifies you as a good, let alone responsible driver.
