I've decided at the next council elections, whoever stands regardless of which party to restore the 30mph to major thoroughfares gets my vote, the plans are to make all roads 20mph sooner or later.
I have 2 vehicles, petrol car 1.4 engine, 2.4 diesel campervan, since the introduction of 20mph I haven't got out of 3rd gear in either of them, I want to stay within the law. The car is automatic and that decides what gear I'm in, it won't go in to 4th till I'm doing about 25/26 mph. The campervan, if I go in to 4th at 20mph it doesn't want to go anywhere, struggles.
Both vehicles must be using more fuel and must be more polluting.
It got me thinking about public transport and Taxis, are uses going to have to pay more, both will consume more fuel. Taxis will take more time on a contract which might reflect in the cost.
Will it mean all bus time tables will now need changing, the further it goes the later it will be.
