Vehicle speed is always measured in miles per hour in the UK. It might change at some point, but it’s not going to be for a while. We randomly use either metric or imperial for everything else though.
We seem to get a lot of people, at least in my little corner of the country, who drive at 40mph on the 50, 60, and 70mph roads, frustrating the drivers behind them, but then stick to 40mph through the 30 and even 20mph limits. They seem to be the same drivers who sit in either the middle or right hand lane when the law says to stay left unless you’re overtaking.
We’ve got more than our fair share of bad drivers, but everyone thinks that it doesn’t include them…
Is this 40 mi or km per hour? The UK seems to arbitrarily flip either way. Both are far too fast for a residential street.
