    The City of Edinburgh Council wants Transport Scotland to make 20mph the default speed limit for urban roads.

    "additional measures may be necessary on some streets" if average is more than 20% higher than the limit. Sounds as if they're not that bothered about most drivers sticking to the limit.

    I dunno, 20-24mph would be a lot better an the 30-35mph people seem to think is acceptable on residential streets. Plus it might be very expensive to get all cars down below the limit, and they are just being realistic
