[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 176064, member: 60"] Never mind Wales I have just been unfortunate to go by B roads through Oxfordshire . Now I know the powers of Darkness have made an onslaught on the freedom of the individual on the inhabitants of Oxford itself, but now the latest idiocy is to replace 30 limits with 20 over the whole county! No, we are not talking about a section in mid town that is 20 but the original 30 signs now have 20 on them this means you are bowling along at 50 (Its a good day when you are allowed 60 anywhere in that benighted county) and suddenly you are confronted with a 20! Ostensibly this is to protect pedestrians but you know how adaptable humans are, get them used to the painful procession of grinding cars in the street and they will just take more chances. i will await the accident statistics in 12 months time, I can imagine what the coppers feel about policing the limit and we will say nothing about the increase in fuel consumption, journey times or the case for democracy and party mandates. I was even glad to see the Buckinghamshire signs even though that holds the "pothole county of the country award." [/QUOTE]
