    It happens where ladymuck lives. It is mainly caused by congestion which is caused by things like accidents and road works not a 20mph speed limit.

    I live on part of a road that has had a 20mph speed limit since I've lived on the road - it doesn't stop emergency vehicles using it and going faster.
    A number of villages round here have 20mph areas and they have adjusted the road layout accordingly which increases congestion I can assure you that emergency vehicles are impacted considerably.

      Basically if you aren't travelling by a mode of transport that needs a license you have priority over those that do on the roads.
      it is a US thing and many other backward countries like Australia, Spain & Canada as a safety measure.

      Maybe we should reconsider, considering the stupidity I see exhibited by many pedestrians.
