Even twisting rural roads have a 60mph default speed limit and are most dangerous in UK with 10,000 deaths and serious injuries a year

The Commonwealth Games shows us clearly that if you make driving private cars harder and make sustainable options like public and active transport easier, people will shift modes.

A great legacy would be for us to remember this simple truth in all our future transport planning. https://twitter.com/ladywoodnorm/status/1556270033780834304
