I believe the law is too draconian and disagree with it. Tyres, brakes and road surfaces have improved, but the speed limit is decreased. Certainly around reading the main, non motorway, road to London used to be national speed limit and now between Reading and Maidenhead (10 miles) there are 6-10 changes in speed limit varying between 30 and 60. Fair enough slow down when there are houses, but they have put 30 zones where there are fields both sides and the road is straight and level!
Why? All I can assume is it is too increase speeding taxes and artificially raise the 'clear up' rate. I disagree with this and therefore will do whatever I can (legally) to fight it!
