Evening Standard asks readers to vote on 20mph speed limit Bicycle Business BikeBiz.
Hi everyone. This is a great opportunity to make a point that 20mph is the way to go on London’s streets. The vast majority of traffic already is forced to do this speed at peak times so why not just make it the norm. At lower speeds traffic flow is actually improved.
Note the switch in the article where the question was changed from a non-specific safety improvement to a safety improvement for cyclists.

Here’s an interesting illustration from a town within the commuter belt, this report from a couple of years ago shows how peak car already affects our lives. More journeys by cycling is surely the key. http://www.bedfordtoday.co.uk/news/you_might_as_well_go_by_horse_and_cart_1_1092291
