Bad idea
Reducing speed limits to 20mph will lead to far greater congestion and increased frustration, resulting in more, not less, accidents. I fear that many drivers will ultimately start to disregard all 20mph signs, including around schools etc, thus putting children at greater risk. I have yet to meet a single person who supports reducing the speed limit of 30mph roads to 20mph.
The money wasted on this ridiculous strategy could have been put to much better use, namely duelling the A96 and A9. The majority of local people have been requesting these road improvements for many years; the positive impact of duelling these roads would be considerable, with the ultimate benefit of helping to reduce fatal accidents.
