How do you plow a road with cars stuck on it?
Apart motorways (where pedestrians, bicycles and horses are NOT allowed). The MAXIMUM speed limit on ALL roads should be 40mph.How many car accidents have you been in?
whats a trunk road, do you drive on treesDon't start we have enough speed traps on our roads.
Why cant v put in nitrogen instead of air in our daily routine vehicles?
no, it has to be relative to the road, taking into account its width, straightness, visibility (ie blind summits) and even what is on either side of it, open fields which help long distance visibility, rather than thick forest.We all know roads where you just don't want to do more 40 on, even though you could do 60, and the opposite also applys.
Does any1 no where i can get a breathalyser fitted in my car?
National speed limits, give the driver the option, within their ability and road condition on the day. It's not mandatory !!
By trunk roads i presume you mean leafy country lanes wide enough for both cars to pass comfortably??
I think it is fine at 60, we have to get places after all< with the introduction of some 20mph speed limits through towns etc, i think paranoia is setting in and any less speed would be ridiculous
No not really - i live near a lot of non-trunk roads that are national, slowing down the speed will do nothing but increase the level of speeding going on so its pretty pointless.
It is important to be aware when using these roads, but 60 isn't that fast and nearly all the cars on the road have good enough brakes to stop quick enough should there be a problem
No, that is a maximum speed. You should always drive to the conditions of the road.
Silver cross car seat wont fit?
No. There are many non-trunk roads on which 60mph is a reasonably safe speed for a good driver in a modern well-maintained car. However, there are situations where 60mph is not safe - for example tight bends, near junctions, or where there are blind brows. Just like there are situations in towns where 30mph is not safe, due to parked cars, pedestrians, obstructed vision or traffic conditions. Or times when weather conditions mean 70mph on a motorway or dual carriageway is close to suicidal.If we lowered the speed limit at every bend, our countryside would have nearly as many speed-limit signs as trees.
I realise that today's nanny-state government would like to take all responsibility for all decisions away from the individual (unless that individual is Tony Blair), but that isn't realistic. Each driver should be trained and then trusted to be able to judge a safe speed based on the road, weather, car and vision conditions, and his/her own capabilities (e.g. eyesight, reactions, car control skills).
The other day I was driving home and I noticed a taxi actually using its indicators!?
It probably doesn't matter too much what the national speed-limit is; the death and seriousy injury rate remains much the same as it has always been.Can you still use hand signals to signal which direction you're going to turn while driving a car?
31mph around a 30mph bend is dangerous, whereas 69mph around a 70mph bend is perfectly safe.
I got flashed by a speed camera!!!!!?
I'm afraid that legislation has probably not made much of an impact on road-safety, because it still comes down the the fact that there are those who can drive safely at speed and those who cannot drive safely at any speed.
Please give me 10 tips for fuel efficiency-buses?
uk roads have a design speed i.e 30 mph. also there are other factors such as sight factors that are taken in to account. i know it seems that not much goes in to road design but civil engineers spend alot of time on it.Anyone else leave the seatbelt in their car plugged in all time and just use the shoulder belt?
Yes it's too high in places. A lot of drivers seem to think the limit means not less than 60, and the road conditions vary. Let's have some common sense though, and not more speed trapsHow many do you have to score on the hazard perception test to pass?
Personally yes.Why dont drivers respect the rule of SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT.?
Not if you drive sensibly. !More Questions & Answers ...
