I agree with Lil Mush. Speed limits of 20 or 30 in built up areas/schools etc are completely justifiable.

France have got the right idea whereby in good weather, the speed limit is 130km per hour, reducing to 110km per hour in poorer weather conditions.

I think the limit for motorways should be increased to 80mph as it would stop idiots from sitting in the fast and middle lanes at 70!

Interesting ideas...

Personally I would like all the tosspots on the M25 this morning in lanes 3 & 4 inches from each others bumpers shot. Mind you in meant the other 2 lanes were entirely empty for my use White Paneuro

I would like to see people nicked for

1. Inattention (i.e. mobile phone use, or just general uselessness)
2. Inappropriate lane use
3. Fog lights on during the day
4. Agressive behaviour
5. Cigarette ends/litter out of the window

And finally...

6. Owning a Porsche Cayenne

In fact if all the repville twats were rounded up and shot the world would be a better place Laughing

3am and 3pm outside a school are two entirely different scenarios and should be treated as such

Ditto on the fog lights : No mate you don't look cool, you look like a knob who forgot to turn his foglights off...

And Dunc....

What exactly are you doing hanging around schools at 3.00am?? Shocked
