Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Depends on where you are. 10 over on some roads is crazy, but there are many roads where 20 over is still fine.
I would be wary of those roads. I've ran across several that seem like national, or 50 roads, yet limited a lot lower. Generally, there is a hidden danger on that stretch. The classic being a blind junction joining, or a school kicking out nearby. It won't be obvious, unless you are familiar with the area.
At the same time, i also know of a 30 limit on an otherwise national road. It's along the stretch in front of a previous Mayer's house.
I'd say 10 over on any 30mph zone is crazy. These are usually in built up areas so there's no excuse for it.
Can't say I agree. National speed limit is either 60 or 70mph depending on the road and I wouldn't want to do 20mph over on either.
There's a road near where I live that is 35, it's a two lane road both ways with a median, everyone regularly goes 45.
