Road speed limit cut to 50mph
It's not the laudable intention I'm against - to cut road deaths - but the logic. Where does it all end? Won't 40mph 'save more lives'? Then 30mph? And so on. (And as motorcyclists, we're got to be particularly wary about initiatives from the safety lobby because our casualty rates are not falling like the cagers'.)
Rant over. But if this comes to pass, I'm leaving the country to live somewhere more sensible.
