    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    Let me see if I can help you to understand the post of mine which you quoted. So the "doing what" will be "try[ing] to focus on the more serious issue as a rule of thumb". Do you see it now? The energy consumed by accelerating a car is proportional to the square of the speed gained. So...

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    So in other words 20mph limits have very little effect on journey times, and so anybody complaining that they make journeys take too long is talking complete bllx- it's just a false claim they've seized on to try to disguise the real reasons for their opposition. Shall we look at some of the...

    What’s going on here?

    My parents' house (1930s) still had some old wooden boxes left for light switches. The switch plates had little toothed lugs which pivoted outward as you tightened the mounting screws and they dug into the sides of the box. Wish I'd kept an example.

    EICR - RCD type

    And where did the terminology come from? MCB types follow a logical sequence, at least for A - D. But RCD types AC, then A, then F, then B, I mean what the....

    #13 - #23 Even in a topic as serious as this, you two clowns just will not stop your childish, pointless, off-topic, thread destroying nonsense, will you. F-- grow up!

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    And everybody please remember this. It isn't only about safety, there are other factors. People other than car drivers also use the roads. We call them "pedestrians", or "cyclists", for example. With lower speed limits, people are more ready to walk or cycle. They're more ready to walk or...

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    I hadn't realised that those capable of a proper intelligent argument were such a tiny minority here - I'd always assumed that most who failed to do so were simply trivial and juvenile in nature, not that they were afflicted by deficiencies of ability.

    For someone who claims to be a legal professional, you seem to have a bringing-into-disrepute level of contempt for laws.

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    Do you find it equally difficult to drive at 30mph for prolonged periods? If not can you explain the law of nature which makes 20mph difficult to sustain? But you're OK with an environment where roads have speed limits of 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70mph? But adding one more into the mix, or...

    Fkkk them. And BTW - I drive a German badged car. It has a cruise control I can set to 20, and it has a law-abiding, civic-minded driver.

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    I read an interesting comment once - "I hear numerous complaints from motorists about the 20mph limit. It can be frustrating, and there may be places where a higher limit would be more appropriate. However I have yet to hear of an accident victim (be they pedestrian, cyclist or driver/passenger...
