This Green driven policy is over kill - not a pun. The concept is unproven and based on collision theory not the number of lives and serious injuries it will save. It will lead to greater driver frustration and unnecessarily create more fines and criminal records. Drivers will be wrongly focusing on their speed and not maintaining a good lookout for the pedestrians they are supposed not to hit. A lower speed can apply to residential streets but should not apply to main thoroughfares like the A96 and A95. What we need is the A96 to be dualled as promised to improve safety, traffic flow and driver frustration. Traffic is already slowed by normal traffic and excess traffic lights. Outside busy periods it is near impossible to keep below 20mph even in an automatic. Have you tried it? This policy will fail as it has in Wales.
