National speed limit to be reduced to 50mph

[Sockpuppet]

It's irrelavent anyway, your average journey times will be largely unaffected.

I do 60 miles each way each day, a mix of A roads, dual carriage way and motorway. Average speed for the journey is 50 mph, sticking to the speed limits or as near as I can get to them in the traffic.

Yet another person who doesn't understand maths or how "averages" are calculated.

driving safely includes limiting your speed, unless you honestly believe that it is possible to drive safely at absolutely any speed.

Driving safely means driving to the conditions of the road.

Dropping the speed limit 10mph isn't going to solve the problem that the majority of road users are ufcking useless

Learn to drive without killing each other and there wouldn't be a problem.

Man of sense.

I'm going to buy two identical cars, with revolving number plates.

That will screw them as I change plates at every junction.
