Comments on: 110km/h?… I’m getting a new road angel! http://www.theolivepress.es/spain-news/2011/03/27/110kmh-i%e2%80%99m-getting-a-new-road-angel/ Spain news and local Spanish news for Andalusia in English Wed, 22 Feb 2012 18:22:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Fred http://www.theolivepress.es/spain-news/2011/03/27/110kmh-i%e2%80%99m-getting-a-new-road-angel/comment-page-1/#comment-86358 Fred Sun, 27 Mar 2011 16:31:05 +0000 http://www.theolivepress.es/?p=15705#comment-86358 Spanish drivers do not abide by the speed limit (old or new) anyway, so a new limit is largely an irrelevance. However, advocating the use of "Speed Angels" in an article such as this is reckless. These devices are mostly used by people have a tendancy to speed on all classes of road. I would certainly agree with a new law to levy large fines on drivers who are caught using camera detection systems like the Speed Angel.

Since perhaps one car in a hundred is on the motorway, compared with the rest on ordinary roads, drives, tracks, city streets and so on, the true saving is nearer 0.05%, which is why, Best Beloved, this government has to go. Soon. The consumption of petrol nationwide would be reduced by 5%… only if all of us spent all of our time, while driving, whizzing along on the motorway.
