New 10mph Speed Limits

Islington have introduced a temporary 10mph speed limit due to road works. It’s about the same as the average speed in London anyway :lol:

But no, please no. 10mph is painful especially when it’s quiet with no one else around. And this won’t be temporary either.

And you know 1 in 8 people will be going under the limit because they’re one penalty away from a ban!

And unenforceable against bicycles which can easily exceed it, even if not e-assisted. I hope the slow cars will keep out of the way of the cyclists and not hold them up :lol:

@Jobbo the sign quite clearly instructs cyclists not to overtake ;)

I drive up there most week days to drop the kids off at school - I will be overtaken by every bike if I try to stay at 10mph - I'll report back!
