2500 RPM is a little low… That could be dangerous actually. A new driver should learn the finer points of acceleration, including what the use of full acceleration feels like. Personally, I shift at 3000 usually (to be nice on my engine as it is getting older). But I definitely go above that when I need to accelerate more quickly. It’s possible to drive like this but it’s not good for learning or anything…
Do they really need to start putting disclaimers on these things or will people stop being to stupid to realize when something is supposed to be funny? My guess is … disclaimers. Kind of like the coffee cups that say “Be careful-hot liquid”. There sure are alot of stupid people around (or, at least, lots of people with NO sense of humor).
we’re not actually allowed to drive any faster than 65mph anyway (or maybe 70? – 110km/h limit in Australia). stupid companies putting the gauges up to 140mph 225km/h – like my car will ever legally (let alone physically!) do that.
and like others i don’t get the tachometer. but it’s a joke.

… unless this is an automatic.
Doesn’t negate the point that there are times that require you to go over 2500 RPM and that people should learn how the car behaves when doing so.

I get the humour… Not denying that… I don’t get how you somehow got that I don’t have a sense of humour out of that…
I should also note that a new driver shouldn’t be fixated on the instrumentation…
The best part about this photo is that it was taken while going 65 mph
How did I miss that?
…Yea, but the ‘No Labels’ were clearly photoshopped on much later!
… and that speeds over 135 mph are ok.
