The vehemence – is that, though? 20 mph is very hard to argue against at least with any facts, so drivers rapidly end up in conspiracy land instead.

Ah, “the greater good”, “more sensible laws” – expect to hear more heavy lifting from phrases like this if Reform make political progress. And of course 120 years of car domination has just magically happened, no politics at all.

If you don’t want 1,600 people a year to die from road violence, that’s an anti-car crusade.
Did anyone pop on and say “probably avoiding a cyclist”, or “you don’t know that it wasn’t a medical episode”?
looks like there is some police action here.
Driver’s mum reported to be “annoyed” as she needed it for work this morning.

I liked the reference to an earlier “car flips” episode
“The collision comes just over three years after a woman had to be freed from the car she was driving after it flipped onto its roof near to the shops.”

It’s flags all the way down, it seems…If I’d realised that they were just (specific) mad keen vexillologists I’d have been less concerned. I liked almost all Americans I met when I visited that country, and most of them seemed hale enthusiasts for Old Glory …

Council’s £195k spend on 20mph signs slammed as ‘a total waste of time and money’
The 20mph signage was introduced after speed limits were approved last year in a Cambridgeshire town

Cllr Hopley said he felt under attack. He wrote: “I have now been called prejudiced and racist by members of the town council. I am not in any way prejudiced. I was simply expressing a view of my constituents who felt they did not have a voice.”
