Default 70mph motorway speed limit to be enforced because...........

of the environmental impact of speeding

Reading The Mirror over lunch and this is one of the proposals. FFS first speed scamera's were all about saving lives and now people are starting to wake up to the fact they are a stitch up Blair pulls the environment card out of his arse.

What a load of old bollocks. Are they going to have a new highway code printed up were wildlife and plants have right of way over cars

Rant over, I feel better now

What a crock of shit - cars now-adays are more fuel ecomical than they have ever been, as well as being almost totally green. Is another excuse to justify the additional car "tax" .

The one good thing that has come out of this though, is that because of the MASSIVE increase in the number of people with points on their license for speeding due to Tony's "car tax", insurance companies virtually ignore even 6 points if they are achieved from cameras, as they know it is bollocks as well .

Load of fooking shit. fooking goverment i can't stand them u can't do this u can't do that and the things u are aloud to do they tax the fuck out of u for it. u can't even have a shag without paying the goverment tax.

like they done in america the limit used to be 70mph in the 70's i think and then they changed it to 60mphs because of emisions, most places its 55mph over their now but then they do have traffic lights ect on some of their highways
