Re: [Merged] Speeding NOT the main cause of accidents
I just think that the current test and how learners are taught to drive is complete nonsense. It takes very little into account of current conditions. It's more of a throw-back to yesteryear.
And speed camera's. Pah! I can't think of a more useless way to calm traffic. All they cause is panic, and the hitting of brakes. Not very safe. If the government really wants to cut speeds, first the limits need to be set properly (no more silly 30mph limits on dual-carriageways, as has been appearing in my area recently), then perhaps technology is the answer. Actually limit car speeds in urban areas.
As for "dangerous" drivers. These can be slow but totally incompetant drivers too. Just ban them. If they are found driving while banned, jail them.
