    Not really as in the UK you can get areas where there is a Minimum Speed Limit. Two pics below one showing what the Minimum Speed Limit Sign looks like, and the other showing a Minimum Speed Limit Sign in Situ.





    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

    Not really relevant in Caithness though is it.
    remember the speed limit is a limit, not a target

    That is a good piece of info.....The 'speed limit' is the maximum.....and I didn't know the UK had minimums....
    In America the limit can be 60 and the minimum 35. Keeps traffic moving. In Canada slow driving is classed as 'impeding traffic', but rarely is there a conviction.
    Speed Kills....a known fact!

    Unless you are a pedestrian walking your dog, then it's the speed that kills. Can you guess I've had a few near misses.........

    Shouldn’t botherposting anything on here Colin, Caithness fools come out of the woodwork to getkicks, they must lead boring lives. You can open serious thread with a validargument and debate for it to be ridiculed, make fun of then finally assassinatedby the same old supercilious obtuse idiots with nothing better to do. Makingfun of ones grammar online is simply a form of cyber bulling, picking apart a post by grammar is ignorant, idiotic, and generally give theimpression you are missing the point entirely.
