Default speed limits



"Bridget Driscoll achieved notoriety by becoming the first pedestrian to be killed in a car accident in the United Kingdom. Whilst visiting the Crystal Palace in London on 17th August 1896, she was hit by an automobile which was giving demonstration rides at a maximum speed of 4 mph. R.D."

Whats the point of these new 20mph city speed limits ? They obviously need to be about 3mph
