Petition Removal of 70mph speed limit

More details

All all other speed limits would remain as they are, except for the 70mph on dual carrageways / motorways for cars which would be removed

its possible today to by a car with a limited speed of 155 mph, why have we kept this arbitrary limit plucked out of thin air of 70 in the 1960's!!?

safety converns can be removed by a more rigourus MOT
