Australia has one of the poorest railway networks in the developed world, one of the lowest population densities in the world, is the 6th largest country in the world and has some of the lowest road speed limits and harshest enforcement in the developed world, mostly 100km/h on open roads but 110km/h for out best freeways and interstate highways in the outback.
