That's as fast as most cars go any way in Central London in any case.
I suspect most of those Donkeys in Malta probably only have a top speed of 6MPH.

Won't be long until drones enforce the speed limit on cars automatically. By the time you get home another drone will have delivered your ticket.

Then he'll be able to have a moan about how Government cuts are causing increased pollution in London.

Not at night, when the daft speed limit will equally apply.

It's a revenue raiser for sure. Motorists are about the only group you can fine automatically using just technology.

They'd be far better off in terms of safety by tacking those who watch their phones instead of those who watch the road and drive at an appropriate speed to the conditions, but there's no simple way to do that - so they don't bother unless it falls into their lap.

 


Optimistic as ever

Something is telling me there may be a few Sadiq Khan 'Guys' on November 5th.

Good news I always enjoy a free upgrade I can't wait for the traffic to speed up to 20mph.

Thanks Sadiq.

We have had this in Brizzle for a while. Amusingly, mayor who brought it in got prosecuted for exceeding it.

Will it apply to cyclists?

I would think that if a cyclist was caught going faster than the speed limit it's deemed dangerous right?

This link clearly shows consequences but I bet non happen.
