LOL it's km/h and why do people always want to know where it is? I'm going to start pulling any video that might have been filmed on highways... :)

A bit over-done going 120 MPH. But it is a very safe and very sound principle of making sure you get up to speed on an entrance ramp. If you're merging onto a highway you need already be doing HIGHWAY speeds. 5 to 10 MPH faster than posted, and slightly throttle back in a power gear as needed to merge. Look back twice. Always pretend they don't see you, and you'll be just fine!

Yeah this wasn't really meant as a lesson. Just a spoof so I could post an acceleration vid. :) You're right though, it's much safer merging *slightly* faster than traffic.
Trouble with some highways is people regularly do 30-40 km/h above posted. (407, parts of 401, QEW, etc.)... try to merge into that in Ontario and you could get a summons for "stunting" ;)

It's not near mississauga. It's a section of the autobahn in germany.... lol Oh and there's no proof who was riding the bike, just in case officer law is listening. :)
