[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 175677, member: 60"] There is another reason for the increase in demand for 20MPH limits (not that it can be officially spoken) its called kinetic energy The electric car is a very heavy object it also accelerates like a motorcycle and its tyres wear out in 7 thousand miles car drivers are not used to acceleration like we motorcyclists are, they will overdo it I have witnessed 3 occurrences of huge black electric blocks shooting out of private drives across most of the road. So double the weight add acceleration keep the same rubber (perhaps more often worn) and the same road surface and the result is obvious...... So again we are penalised for a bad technical choice by non technical bureaucrats [/QUOTE]
