Me neither.  Id like to think that people use common sense and drive to the conditions of the weather and road but they dont.  Plus also drive carefully on a road they dont know.

Just another erosion of our rights where the logic is based on the lowest common denominator - some idiot does something stupid and they bring out another law.

Some single track roads are national speed limit which is ridiculous. I'm in favour of sone limits being reduced and others increased. Common sense is ok if everyone uses it

IMHO a few idiots do stupid things, then the law for everyone in the country gets changed.

How long before some kid falls off the rocks at Surprise View and they make it illegal to walk in the country...?  ::)
