My husband would give me heck if I was in a pretty little sports car and kicking up dust and gravel, it will ruin the nice yellow paint job!
I think the idea of lowering the speed on gravel roads while raising it on paved roads is a good idea, but law enforcement seems to be greatly lacking on the island. I don't think you could depend on them for enforcement of a speed limit on all those long gravel roads. Too many roads and to few officers.
Big wales (or marine ropes would work) placed in frequency helps considerably in keeping the speed lower. Sure I have seen the kids punch it between wales but when they only have 50' before another wale they get tired of that game real quick! This as well as lowering the speed limit could drastically reduce the issues.
