It should be obvious to everyone (although sadly it isn't) that if you put a ridiculously slow speed limit on a road, most will ignore it. So what's the point, particularly if it actually encourages some to drive much faster and overtake.
Why don't we have a 5mph limit? Maybe with some guy in front holding a red flag, just in case pedestrians about to cross the road don't realise you are actually moving?
Ah yes, they tried that before, didn't they?  |
I was talking in general, maybe I should have made that more clear.
It shouldn't be obvious to anyone. That's the problem, too many morons on the road (and in general) who think they can get away with speeding, on the phone, tailgating and just general bad driving. We shouldn't stop with the limits, we should clamp down on motorists more. We aren't cash cows, you're only a cash cow if you're not obeying the law.
