Also the speed limits might be archaic but whilst they are there then they simply are the law. It's not upto us to say that we don;t think this should be a 30 zone so we'll instead do 50..

Point being why do we have cars that will do such speeds. What is the point or use for them. In terms of safety cars have got better & better where speed limits have got progressively lower.

I cycle most days so driving is not really an issue for me.
I specifically mentioned out of town and built up areas which you omitted in the quote. Town speed limits are sensible because of pedestrians.
