Yeah, that's right - emissions was definitely a strong factor too. And it would work to an extent, IF everyone kept to the limit. 80kmh is about where most ICE engines in top gear are most economical, so it should make an impact. The GJs and the vandalised cameras have rather kyboshed the plan for now.chunky butt wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2019 12:03 pm Hey Davey, some one told me twas an emissions thing reducing speed, that's how the politicians got it through parliament..
Myself, I don't really care about a lower limit. But that's because I am almost never in a hurry to get anywhere, and I long ago gave up the idea that driving a car on straight roads at traffic speeds was any fun at all.
Overtaking on a sports bike before piling into a series of knee-sliding sweepers - now that's different .
