Speed Limits

[Quintus.JC]

So I recived a research task at school asking me to write about the speed limits of other European countries in comparison to the UK; Problem is I don't even know the speed limits for cars in the UK, never mind anywhere else. I've tried to look it up in search engines without much favourable result, probably because I've not looked hard enough. But then I thought I could always ask for help from the cooperative, dependable and couthie orgahs within the guild. So I ask for you help now.

Quoted from the 'Research Study Report'

'Compare the speed limits today for cars in Great Britain with those of two other European countries. Display your finding in the most appropriate way.'

It would be nice if you could give me a few tips on this question as well

Give reasons why there have been changes to speed limits for cars in Great Britain during the last hundred years.

I'll probably start taking driving lessons in the next few years, but before all that, I'm baffled by all that its asking.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Edit: Also I would also like to know who designed the first speed camera. I got the answer Maus Gatsonides but would like some confirmation on that.
