I live fairly close to the stretch on the A27, and people do go tearing up and down it. Naturally, I am not one of those people.

Well, as it was a rider rather than driver, I imagine he was hung, drawn and quartered

It's about time we stopped f***ing about and allowed unrestricted speed on certain sections of road like in Germany. As long as weather, traffic density and road surface allow, we should be able to go as fast as we want.
