Recently the Welsh Senedd reduced the 30mph speed limit on the roads in Wales to 20mph.
This means that an uninterrupted three-mile journey in urban Wales now takes about three minutes longer. Predictably, responses range from applauding this to regarding it as a crisis. Rarely has 10mph been the focus of such national debate since Stephenson built his ‘Rocket’. And, unusually, this move by the current Welsh Government is clearly not a vote catcher and may increase the pressure on the economy, but they are sticking to their conviction, and as a result we all drive a little slower in Wales.
Driving slowly – and the commands of Scripture
