The only strategy they list that addresses anything of value is “Education – more information about the consequences.” Pity they don’t think Education – more thorough practical driver training rates a mention.

Exactly. What's therefore needed is for all sensible drivers to stick together and force improvements on our roads - it's the only real way to solve the problem of speeding, and indeed all of the other problems that face us. The most dangerous drivers are those who don't care about driving appropriately, and current measures do almost nothing to stop them.

In short, we need to STAND UP FOR OURSELVES! Good luck!
