It seems to me a very good idea to introduce 20mph on Chiswick High Road and Chiswick Lane although on the former during the day time it isn't generally possible to get up to this speed anyway. The concern would be that this becomes yet another revenue raising exercise to extract more money from Chiswick High Road. If people start getting PCNs for doing 25mph in the early hours of the morning when there isn't any other person or vehicle around then the move will be a lot less popular. And before someone says there is no risk of a fine if you obey the law I do try to stick to the speed limit but is takes only a few seconds of not concentrating on the speedometer for your speed to sneak up - 25 mph feels very slow when driving on the open road and most people will be oblivious to the fact they are driving above the speed limit. |
