Portsmouth City Council is slashing the speed limit in residential areas from 30mph to 20mph and other councils are expected to follow suit. Will this save lives or is bureaucracy just killing motoring?
Is 20 mph to fast ????? depends if your a snail.....ask a snail silly questions as virgin media love to do that of late...but is 20 mph to fast well no....yet 56 mph some say is to fast but it makes for efficent driving...so whats it to be look both ways when crossing the road ? as you need to do but at 20 mph you may get a slight bump ?? or 56 mph and the ice caps will not melt....as if it does they will be no roads to cross but them virgin media will ask.....20 feet to deep..??
20 is asfe limit
25 mph would be more reasonable because most cars even small ones have to go into 3rd or second gear to get that low and therefore cause more pollution.
You don't even need to be a scientist to understand that slowing traffic down creates traffic jams and increases the volume traffic, as we all know an increase in traffic reduces the flow of traffic as a consequence, result potential mayhem.
Yes 20 mph is too slow.
Going from clearway areas/speed to 30 is bad enough, down to 20 is worse, whats next 10 mph.
