Raise Motorway Speed Limits to 100mph and Dual Carriageways to 80mph
Increase Speed Limits on Motorways to 100mph, and 80mph on Dual Carriageways. We think the current speed limit is too restrictive.
The 70mph speed limit is 58 years old. Some modern vehicles have advanced safety features and faster stopping speeds. Faster travel could enhance reliability of supply chains and logistics. Adaptive cruise control and collision avoidance systems can enhance safety. We believe a speed limit increase will improve traffic flow, reducing congestion.
