Toll Motorways, r u stupid or a MP?
we pay enough money to run cars, why the fuck should we pay more

80mph on motorway is a good idea, 20mph near schools is also good, but say after 7pm its put back up to 30 or whatever it is where the school is

100 is a bit excessive! 80 or 90 would be fair enough though. I was on the M6Toll on Sunday night, and almost everyone heading south on there was doing over 85 - the traffic was flowing so smoothly and easily.

So perhaps we should just have toll motorways with higher limits? :)

i drive past schools alot slower than i should.. as GP says its out of respect.

as for motorways i aint fused, i hardly ever go on em.

i drive at 20 mph at schools anyway, just do it out of respect.
as for the motorway, im a believer in raising it. 80-90 sounds good

well.. as far as i know there are more accidents over here on our motorways than there are on the autobahn, and that is an open speed limit.

^^ agreed.

i didnt know that there were some autobahns that had speed restrictions. sorry :(

i wouldnt mind 20 near schools so long as it was only when they are likely to be walking out.

if the speed limit is 20, even at night, and they whack a few cameras up i wont be best pleased

20 mph sounds good but as vibrio says on motorways the more it is increased the more that people will push it again.

I think 70 is still a good speed limit. with 70 most people do around 75-80 anyway. put the limit up to 80 and people will do almost 90. not every one wants to travel so fast onthe roads and this will mean a greater difference in speed. the French have a twin speed limit. bad weather etc reduces the limit by 20 mph or so.

also not all autobahns are derestricted

100 would be better

its been proven that the least accidents happen on motorways so will increasing the speed limit increase the number of accidents?? Im not really sure to be honest but Id say the average speed on a motorway is probably about 80ish anyway if your not stuck in traffic.

Defo think 20 is a good idea near schools

i still think 80 is slow for motorways imo

80 mph on motor way will be nice :thumbs:

I can happily cruise at 85 mph, 70 mph is a bit too slow to cruise at.

80mph on motorways? still in review and 20mph near school? your views
