CTC Supports Reducing Speed Limits to Discourage Motoring
Unsurprisingly. See this page about the laughably named "Slower Speeds
Initiative": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slower_Speeds_Initiative The group advocates "lower and better enforced speed limits, including on high quality roads, where 'by discouraging longer journeys they would help to restrain traffic growth and improve the competitiveness of public transport for longer journeys'." So the aim is not "road safety", it's the often conflicting aim of discouraging driving. And the CTC (Cyclists' Touring Club) founded the SSI. They, and their supporters, are a bunch of lunatic fringe car-haters. |
