As the generation in the UK that is switching from imperial to metric (i went through school learning imperial measurments, with the odd bit of metric towards the end), i can say it's bloody confusing metric.
I have no idea how fast 100 kph is, or how far 100 meteres is, but i can do 100 mph and 100 yards.
Don't have a clue about volumes or areas, mainly because i'm bad with that type of thing, but for some reason little bitty scale (<1cm) i do in metric, but above in imperial.
Kind of a mish mash of everything, it's easier to go with imperial. It will take 2/3/4 generations for everything to fully convert from imperial to metric due to parents/grandparents passing on their sysem, and thats just too long for most governments these days.
