Petition Action

Ban speed limited vehicles (70 MPH) from using the outside lane of a Motorway.

Petition Details

Cars, Vans or other forms of vehicle that are fitted with a 70 MPH speed limiter should not use the outer lane of a motorway.
As with HGV, they are restricted from using the outer lane.

Additional Information

We've all been here... You are happily driving along the motorway and come to a situation where you look to over take a vehicle ahead from the middle lane to the outer lane.
However the vehicle ahead of you is also trying the same manoeuvre but is limited to 70MPH and you are then stuck behind them for quite some time before you are able to pass.
This can sometimes lead to a lengthy tailback in the traffic flow.
