you've missed the point. and your comment about physics is a little wide of the mark. In a text book you are correct, but we don't live in a world of constant acceleration rates and constant velocities. We live in a world where speeding up and slowing down burns considerably more fuel that travelling at a constant speed.

You need to relax , deep breaths and have a long lie down in a dark room as you are posting utter shite now.
ok, well you also do more speeding up and slowing down at 30 than you do at 20
righto, feel free to put me on ignore
that'll be a really efficient use of the engine.
Why would I do that? I enjoy reading your posts, its good comedy reading on a dull day like today.
can you please refrain from posting lyrics from that utter fascist pr1ck
That's why they did it?
Slow Wales down because more damage is done at more than 20mph, exactly its a flawed argument.
Think of the very cautious drivers at junctions and how not being able to go above 20mph will impact there ability to keep the traffic flowing.ok, well you also do more speeding up and slowing down at 30 than you do at 20
People will get hit crossing the roads as well assuming they'll have plenty of time and miss judge because 80% won't be obeying the limit most of the time, it's just added another layer of confusion and frustration to the roads.
surely it'll be a slower motion version of 30. So the cautious drivers should love that
knowing you cannot exceed 20mph means you can't accelerate as fast as you did previously. This adds to the time taken for the cautious drivers as the gap between cars that they require will become even larger.
RJK conveniently ignored by earlier comment. Being hit by bus or lorry at 20mph and you're dead. Are we slowing these vehicles down to 5 mph or is the safety aspect just a smokescreeen?
I ignored it because it was moronic.
Yes, slower oncoming traffic means its better for pulling out of junctions and traffic flow. As Gabalfa roundabout is when knobheads aren't flying around there at 30+.
That petition isn't worth a wank anymore as you got people who pissed at Covid lockdowns 2 years signing just to "get one over" on Drakeford.
Seeing some people lose their collective minds over a 10mph reduction in certain areas has been hilarious. If it angers the absolute melts then I hope it stays around.
That makes no sense at all. You couldn't previously exceed 30mph, it's the same thing, except slower.
Car coming out of junction onto 30mph traffic knows he/she can't go over 30mph pulling out, but has 30mph cars going each way.
Car coming out of junction onto 20mph traffic knows he/she can't go over 20mph pulling out, but has 20mph cars going each way. So it's easier. They're going slower. Cautious drivers will love this.
The people who won't love it will be the people who rev the shit out of their cars to zip out of a junction really quickly over 30 will be caught short. But it'll mean those people shunt into the back of queuing traffic less. Another benefit.
So this morning on Cathedral road - I was sat in traffic for 20 mins - due to the new bus lane issues. Sat in a vehicle wit my engine running - like everyone else - dont you think that the resulting traffic jams will result in more air pollution ?
ps - what is the total cost the the economy of delayed journey times ?
why would 20mph speed limits make more traffic jams, or more cars on the road?
of course it makes sense you're just not thinking clearly.
in a flow of traffic at 30mph the gaps between cars will be greater than if they are travelling at 20mph. All the dithering idiots waiting at junctions to join the flow of traffic, the gaps between cars are now going to be smaller, meaning they are less likely to join the traffic in an expeditious manner. Instead they'll wait for longer waiting for a gap that they feel comfortable joining.
density wave theory, look it up. its what causes bunching on motorways.
and is that more prevalent at higher or lower speeds....
Some still will be some won't the difference between the fast and slow will be greater making it harder to judge and more crashes at junctions.
