I'm actually living the nightmare of all this nonsense !!! You guessed it I'm from Wales.
There is an online petition against this new speed limit .... see here ....
https://petitions.senedd.wales/petitions/245548
The first thing folks can do is to sign the petition.
Secondly, drive everywhere at 15 MPH to totally piss off everyone on the roads such that if they havent yet signed the petition then hopefully they soon will .... inertia is a bitch !
Thirdly and sorry but here is the politics .. briefly .. ( apologies ) .. at the next election vote for someone other than Welsh Labour - these are the very idiots who dreamt up this ridiculous idea.
The 20 MPH petition has broken all records for Wales in terms of numbers of people signing at 460,000 and yet despite this the Welsh Government still refuses to discuss it - note that after a petition gets to 10,000 it is then eligible for discussion in parliament !
I'm all for 20 outside schools and hospitals and risky areas but this 20 MPH thing is all but a blanket speed reduction in most all the previous speed limit areas.
On my way home today I was passed by two cyclists and three runners ( all of which were exceeding my 15 mph due to cars in front of me ) and I gotta laugh they were all on the road ...... not on the deicated footpath / cycle path running alonside it .... as Homer would say " Doh !! "
By the way 460,000 may not sound a lot but pro rata per population head it equates to 69 million 700 thousand citizens of the USA ...... !!
