20Mph Roads

[tiggerblue10]

What are the rules regarding 20mph roads? The reason I ask is because there is a very long road I turn onto on the journey to my new house which is 20 speed limit with cameras in some parts. However, whilst I'm sticking to this speed limit I get drivers coming up very close behind. Admittedly I do go over that in the non camera parts but still get drivers right up my ***** Really pees me off and last time I had a van overtake me. Must've been doing 40 as I was doing just under 30!

Try driving at 50 through roadworks on a motorway. You'll soon have a lorry 2 feet from your rear bumper. Terrifying.

You could put a couple of stickers on your rear bumper - used to be more common than they are now. How effective? Dunno.

The lorry driver would probably just pull even closer so s/he could read it.

Some very odd behaviour going on here.

I understand completely. There is a 20mph limit near where i work and some cars and motorbikes use it like a race track. I hate tailgaters too and their aggressive driving makes me take extra care while they are there.

Excellent, Davebro. Might have to get one of those. I've also got a dash cam which is still in its box. Should set that up as well.
