Exactly why speed limits are needed. A lot of drivers are f*wits. Best case they'll get caught at some point, worst case an accident causes them to think again. Things have got worse l. I blame lockdown , where anything went.
After dark when the police have gone home speed limits are totally disregarded where I am. 20 mph wouldn't be needed if there weren't so many behind the wheel, who see nobody outside their metal bubble. It's an increasingly selfish society and this is just one of the symptoms.
