RE: Cows & Flies

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Don't get me wrong - I never speed in built-up areas.

The thing that REALLY annoys me is the driver who knows that he can drive
safely at 40miles an hour, and therefore holds me up in the 60 limit for
miles, then speeds away when we pass through the village, because he knows
that he's safe at 40, so no need to obey the stupid limit.

Its not enforceable
it is a "voluntary" speed restriction
the 30mph is the legal limit, 20 is just preferable.
I am happy enough with that as, for a change, the 20 limits
tend to be in places where 30 is just too fast.
Unlike a lot of 50mph on motorways, that i just dont
understand.
