If I ran you over at 20 mph or at 30mph, what reduction of injuries would you expect?
New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

I think you’d probably need to go a bit quicker to be sure of the desired result.

Why do you say that when it is untrue?
There is a correlation between speed and accident rates.
But even if there wasn't...
Even if the number of accidents was unrelated to speed, any accident is going to be more serious if speeds are higher.

Go on then - show us how average impact speeds when vehicles are freely travelling at 30 or 40mph are no higher than when they're doing 20mph.

You should have made a complaint. Professional drivers should operate to a higher standard than the average amateur.
Escalate it, in writing, not email.
Yes it is.
It earns them nothing.

What evidence do you have to support the allegation that Highway Man intentionally runs people over?

I'll say it. Speed limits are only required because some men decide that the best way to burn off excess testosterone is to drive like a tw@t.
Just go for a run or do some squat thrusts. That'll calm you down boy. Then you can drive with your head on straight. Tell me I'm wrong.

Sorry folks, but I hate speeding drivers. Not only does it kill, but it scares people, having a several-ton machine hurtle past you, only inches away, as you walk along the pavement. It is antisocial, noisy and ILLEGAL. That said, many 20 zones are unnecessary, and very few people abide by a 20 limit anywhere - because they can get away with not doing!
With any crime, the police give up enforcing the law once a large number of people commit that crime. We see this with parking on the pavement. 20 mph zones, any crime committed by muslims, and of course cannabis....

Being outside the law, you are not in a position to judge otherskeep going - you can lead a troll to truth but you can't make him think.
...Along with the illegal electric bikes, and scooters, noisy exhausts etc.. They only enforce the laws, as token, and to massage the figures..
