Because in life you have to be able to ask yourself the right questions… The middle finger on the automatic radar: a good idea or not? – LE DALL Driver’s License Lawyer https://t.co/HSUCeBxhnk

Currently, the trend is to reduce speed in the name of ecology and safety. This is why speed cameras are mushrooming on our roads, and why private cars with speed cameras are also on the rise. Of course, it is impossible not to mention a passage from 90-80 km/h on the secondary network, which still ended in failure, and many departments decided to revert to the original limitation. The idea of reducing the speed to 110 km/h on all highways also often comes up on the carpet, more and more often. Risking that this measure will be adopted, to the chagrin of motorists.
An automatic speed camera on the RD 137 in St Sulpice d’Arnoult has been scaring drivers in recent days by flashing as they obeyed the speed limit!

Limit 30 km/h
More and more municipalities have also decided to reduce the maximum speed from 50 to 30 km/h. An idea that was adopted for the first time Angers and Grenoble, which has grown steadily over the years. And motivations are many and varied. Indeed, some cities argue for better safety, especially for pedestrians and cyclists, while others cite a reduction in noise pollution. And this is even though numerous studies have shown that driving at a speed of 30 km/h will be even more harmful to the environment than driving at a speed of 50 km/h. Last year, it was the turn of Paris to adopt this measure, which was also sharply criticized by motorists.
