Interesting points - Cess do you have a link for that as it backs up what I have been ranting about all along - speed is only one of a lot of causes of accidents and the current policing of the roads looks at speed so much that the other causes are not being picked up because officers are mostly doing speed traps. (Which conveniently also raise revenue).
This proposal is not just a pipe dream - if the Assembly gets up and running again (and it is looking more likely) local politicians will be responsible for roads as well as everything else and if there is a big enough lobby backed up by reasonable evidence then who knows?
It would indeed be nice to see a derestricted (totally) sign on the motorways as on the autobahn especially if it could reduce accident figures.
@pacology - gantries would dictate the speed limit according to the conditions.
