If you don't drive at the speed limit why not?

Which is dopey. There are plenty of roads in the world that have a different speed limit if the road is wet and people seem to cope. In fact if you can't cope with the concept of variable speed limits maybe you aren't clever enough to drive.

I agree, that's why as someone mentiond earlier when you're in a 100 zone coming up to a bend there will be a yellow sign saying 'bend, 70kph' so you go 70kph.

A grey cloud and 2 drops of rain is no reason to drop 15kph. If it's storming and pelting down, well, duh of course you slow down! But really, Perth weather is not that crazy and doesn't have too much opportunity to really dictate road conditions.

ETA - we won't go there Cranky Kitten!! LOL
