Banning all traffic would also reduce accidents. So his point was *what*

That we're going to see an awful load more A roads where you _could_
safely do 70, but the limit is actually 50 or 40.

It was quite an illuminating debate. The attendee who raised the point
became almost physically aggressive in his rant at the instructor. red
face and all. It was clear that he had every intention of doing what
speed he wanted, and sod the consequences.

Would you know if he "passed" the course? ISTR that if the instructors
feel that if an attendee has not showed any sign of giving the course
contents sufficient consideration with at least some indication that
driving habits may change then the procedure for prosecution for any
offence may still be invoked.
Ranting at the instructor in the way you describe by the bloke sounds
like he would be the sort of person that could happen to.
