John J Thompson Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 The Speed limit in a lot of urban areas is to be reduced from 70 or 50Kph to 30Kph (20mph). Also Motorway speeds are to be increased but initially reduced. http://www.simplynetworking.es/news-5343-31-be_warned_national_road_speed_limits_are_being_reduced_from_7th_march.html John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peter James Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I wonder how that will work. I have just come back from Spain where I slowed down to 50k/h in the 50k/h limits and was tailgated by aggressive drivers making rude gestures when they overtook 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Peter James - 2011-03-01 8:27 AM I wonder how that will work. I have just come back from Spain where I slowed down to 50k/h in the 50k/h limits and was tailgated by aggressive drivers making rude gestures when they overtook 8-) Please, continue to slow down to below 50 in a 50 limit, 'cos: a. It ain't the tailgaters who'll fine you 100 euros or more for even marginally exceeding that limit, it's the Police. And they do have mobile radar guns here now b. If a child runs out into the road, there's a reasonable chance that you won't have to live the rest of your life knowing that you killed another human being because you couldn't be bothered to slow down and give them a chance to survive. Just a thought................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
