Default speed limits on m/ways @ night

I think the speed limits should be raised to 100mph on m/ways between certain hours of the night to early morning

I never take any notice of speed limit, just drive at whatever speed i thinks ok for the road conditions, so usually 100+.

I drive on the M.way almost every day and VERY rarely see a pig car or owt, they dont enforce the 70mph limit very strictly (unless they bored and being wankers) as they know if everyone drove at 70 the m.ways would be well busy.

I mean, you seen it when everyone spots a pig car ahead and slows down to 70mph, suddenly the entire carridgeway is congested to fuck
