This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Abolish newly restricted 45mph drivers limit on motorways.
Law states you must obey all speed limits and signs. As people use motorways alot to travel to university and from small towns to big citites and have to take long way roundnot fair on new restricted 45mph drivers to take long way and waste desiel and petrol it's very cheap but still costly.
More details
Have seen R drivers on NI motorways obeying the law and sticking to 45mph and have seen other R drivers doing the speed limit 70mph required by law which is correct. Not 45mph left lane only.
