GaryNot for me, I understand the reasoning, but I’d rather people just do what they are supposed to do, which is drive to the conditions upto the speed limit.
I’d rather the police punish more freely tbh.

ReneAs someone who’s used to different road conditions, rather than lowering the speed limit, proper construction would be better.
I’ve never seen so much standing water on a motorway when it rains proper, which even at 60mph would be enough to send you into the guard rail. Especially in the dark, where you can’t see the fricking lakes.

But I can see in the not to distant future your car will adjust its speed automatically.

GeorgieI know Common Sense is rarer than hens teeth in Britain these days, but seriously – It would be the thin end of the wedge: 70 for dry, 50 for rain, 10 for icy – and the Police sitting in a lay-by clocking you and fining you for any infringement?
Or just drive appropriately for the conditions.
August 3, 2021 at 10:52 am #160514Police on the motorways @Georgie now that’s a rare site these days. Since the inception of Highways patrols the police moved of the motorways into the urban setting chasing drugs gangs etc.

ajnShhh it’s meant to be humour Tim..
August 3, 2021 at 11:10 am #160522I find that common sense isn’t that common unfortunately.
I was on the motorway last week and experienced an absolute deluge, I dropped my speed to about 30mph and still couldn’t see the road in front of me, yet the other two lanes had cars going much faster.
Many decades ago I was on the M8 Motorway in the middle of the night, the motorway was empty but covered with ice, this jaguar passed me going way to fast about 500 metres beyond me he went into a spin, like dancing on ice, and came to a stop. Nobody hurt, thankfully, but could have been much worse.

ajnYou can be as careful as you want, when some clown loses it starts sliding around at speed totally out of control and froze in fright you can easily get outed..

ajnIn all fairness the signs do flash up with reduced speeds sometimes in bad weather, warnings signs to, it just the idiots are going so fast through the spray grasping at the steering wheel have no time to take notice..
