Syncing vehicle speeds with the pace of legislative reform.

What happened

New security regulations at the Parliament complex have introduced a 10 km/h speed limit for all vehicles. Administrative experts believe this is a strategic masterstroke to ensure that nothing in the complex—be it a car or a bill—moves fast enough to cause a breeze. MPs are reportedly finding it difficult to drive that slowly without accidentally stopping to form a committee, though the new limit ensures that for the first time in history, the cars outside match the productivity inside.
