Hi,

I've just been driving on a European motorway and my bog standard M5 reached 170mph without hitting a limiter. I know it's supposed to be restricted to 155mph but obviously it's not. Anyone else gone way over 155mph without hitting the limiter? Or anyone else hit the limiter at 155mph or any other speed?

Oh, and there was a lot of shove still remaining at 170mph. It just didn't stop pulling hard until I ran out of appropriate road and slowed down but it felt like there was a fair bit more there.
