It will make a difference to the local police with all the extra revenue they get from speeding..

Hmmmm, I can imagine the room full of geniuses that came up with this one...

Councillor with a bicycle pump embedded in his skull: "Our policy of trying to make drivers slow down appears to be having the opposite result to the one we intended"

Councillor eating a live hand grenade: "Yes, despite our love of speed cameras deaths are rising"

Councillor gnawing his left hand off: "What if we lowered all the speed limits and try to force them to drive even slower?"

All: "Oh yeah, that's bound to work, high five!!!"

Grade A retards the bunch of them:rolleyes:

Right, so lowering the speed limit, in an area that many 'sensible' drivers (and riders) see that limit as optional already, will achieve what exactly?

Enforcement imcome may rise, but people will quickly learn where the speed traps are commonly found.

Only good for more income and more dab feeling and PR for the forces that do it. Silly idea.

I seen on a program, might have been "How do they do it?", that to stop all fatal crashes we would all have to drive at about 20mph.

Head on crash, both parties doing 20mph will probably kill you anyway though..

Be safe! Stay indoors! Fun is for death-wish people!
