I was on the M25 yesterday and have no idea what the speeds were as they changed from 70 to 60 to 40 to 70 and people were avergaing around 80mph through all zones.
It's madness
It's a joke!!!!!!
Some insurance companies ask if you've been on an awareness course but they cannot charge you anymore if yiu have been on one. Admiral ask but I did an awareness course this week and they told me it is illegal to charge you anymore if you have carried one out.
On the point of the middle lane driving I'm afraid there is NO excuse for that no matter what is on the inside/outisde lane. If you dont feel confident driving on the inside lane then pull away from the cones a little and straddle the white line a little but middle lane hoggers boil my urine.
Agreed, it is very confusing to know what speed you are supposed to be doing. From my perspective there is not a desire to speed on these sections of road or disobey the rules or regs of the road. Just compelete confusion on what speed your supposed to be doing. That isn't fair or objective just complete dishonest trickery.
Mind you why should I be surprised it seems to be the way of the world these days. Who says crime doesn't pay. What is being done here is nothing short of extortion and criminal.
Funny that the people indirectly are supposed to be running the country but all that is being done here is against the majorities thoughts it seems.
Wow.....now there are some numbers.
I think we all know it is now another stealth tax or revenue generator. Why don't they just be upfront & honest about it.
Why not just generate fines with no penalty points or speed awareness courses. Just simply fine people & keep hitting them in the pocket.
They need to rename the speed awareness course to something more applicable.
The ,we can't tax you so we'll fine you instead course.
Everything is about money , concerns about the environment but you can still buy a 500bhp V8 that does 10mpg as long as you pay , you can drive in congestion zones in any car regardless of emissions as long as you pay.
Anyone who thinks electric cars will be cheap to run forever is deluded , once they get the battery technology right and they start replacing conventional engines the running costs will go up , average car £5 A week in road tax £40 fuel of which at least £30 is tax so approx £1600 PA to the treasury which has to come from somewhere
The speeding fines will start at 50.001 mph
