Time For Smallholders and Town Folk to Slow Down. (Sensible Speed Limits In The Countryside And Towns At Last?)

I see the British government is think of attempting to bring in legislation to reduce the speed limits to twenty miles an hour in the towns with chicanes and sleeping (tarmac humps) policeman.  They are also considering bringing the speed limits down in the countryside.

What do you think of the EU led proposals to make the roads safer?

I reckon it's a move in the right direction.  I am tired of all the cars and I think they should be fitted with a governor to prevent road-kill and to make it safe for people to walk along country roads.  There are far too many cars in Europe and we are destroying the environment with all the pollution.

I also think that all the little rural towns would be less congested if they made 'Park and Ride' facilities in every village and town.  I believe Clovelly in Devon is car free and I once visited Tresco in the Scilly Isles and that's also car free.  Lets  have more public transport, cycle lanes, rural pavements and reduce the cars to 2 per household.

What do you think folks?
