If a cop dont know, who does? I'm wondering if they go back to zero, or
just keep showing 99?????
...or they show 3 digits.

Most metric units have 3 digit readout. Imperial units for urban use
generally have only 2 digits - 100mph in urban areas is not "expected"
but 100kph is far from unheard of.
I always have a tough time with most metric stuff, but if I'm right,
100kph is roughly 62mph (62.137mph).
(Yea, I cheated, I used an old program called convert.exe which was made
for Windows3.x, or was it Win95. One of the most useful pieces of
software ever made. It converts darn near everything).
I'm glad they never changed the traffic signs in the US to metric. I'd
probably always be so confused that I'd have to have a computer on the
seat next to me at all times that I am driving.
