Speeding fine

This REALLY gets my goat. Opened a letter from Cumbria Constabulary, with news of a speeding fine and a 3 point endorsement. I wasn't driving the car at the time, it was Paul. Really cross, he was doing, apparently, 49 miles in a 40 zone, on an A road which was veering between 40 and 50 as a limit, at 8 in the morning with no sign of any other car on the road.

Meanwhile, in our sleepy village of Mentmore, Bucks, anyone can drive through at any speed they like - usually 60 or 70 miles an hour plus round the sharp corners. The roads are full of potholes and the bends are much sharper than drivers think so there are numerous accidents.

Make the speed limit uniform across the country so you know what you're doing. 30 mph in villages - and not just the ones with schools in please. End of story.
