Should HGVs speed limits be upgraded?
Any regular user of the roads knows that its not usually the speed that kills but the disparity between the slowest vehicle on that road combined with the fastest. If cars are allowed to do 80 and HGVs remained the same this gap will increase.
Also its the container traffic that would benefit from a higher speed limit as the driver is confined to a set number of driving hours.
Therefore if we want to improve efficiency should HGVs have their max speed adjusted?
