THE GUARDIAN: Exclusive: Latest push against what PM terms ‘anti-motorist’ policies follows order of review into low-traffic neighbourhoods

Sunak is quite right on this. 20mph is a ridiculously low speed to drive at. Driving at such a low speed can cause frustration in drivers. A frustrated driver is potentially a dangerous driver. – © Mark Alexander
