And dont even get me started on Undertaking, Should be a INSTANT 6 points, There is never any need for it,

Back on topic...
Let's make this nice and simple.
Raise the motorway speed limit to 80mph, allow undertaking and stop lowering all the other speed limits on other roads. Residential roads should be 30, not f**king, 20, 15 or 10mph. I dont give a monkies if there is a school or parade of shops. The roads are a danagerous place, take care when crossing them and teach your children to take care.
Some of us would like to make progress. That's why I driver a car. If I wanted to move about that slowly I'd walk or run everywhere.

Maybe one day you will have kids and you will understand why people would like their roads to be 20mph. Parents DO teach their kids to stay off the road, but kids are kids and 'society' should look after them - Maybe you are one of those people who think its their god given right to do anything they please because life is all about 'you' being 'you' and sod everyone else.

The only person who does 20mph or less on that road is me on my push bike.
Waste of time that was.

I think rather than worrying about some of the safest roads in Europe (motorways) we should focus on lowering speed limits in residential areas. As such, motorways are fine to be 80mph but reduce limits around estates to 20mph and around schools to 15mph.

A bit like the 70mph limit, its never enforced so everyone does 80.
If you put a policeman there (not a hateful speed camera) every morning to pull over the cretinous drivers who speed and drive dangerously round schools, bang them up and give them 9 points for being a mong, then I bet everyone will start doing 20 in less than a week.
