lam writing with regard to the 40mph truck speed limit on two carriageway roads. Isn't this an absurd limit which should be raised? We are based at King's Lynn, the point at which Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire join.
We may go 50 miles east, south or west on the A47 or Al7 roads, all major routes, and all added together we wouldn't have even 20 miles of dual carriageway let alone motorways.
So, if we are in a truck and do 40mph we build up a tremendous tailback which can proceed for miles. If we are in a earthen we catch up to someone else's 40mph tailback.
Yes. It is absurd.
