10MPH Speed Limits in Cities? Are They Having a Laugh?!
A charity, a Road Safety Foundation, is proposing 10mph speed limits – seriously?!
Sometimes the news hits you with something so utterly ridiculous, so mind-meltingly daft, you can’t ignore it. So here we are. Hold onto your steering wheels.

SMMT Media Test Day at Millbrook!
Once a year, something quite magical happens.

Yes, you heard that right! In a surprising and very welcome turn of events, the UK government has secured not one, but two major trade deals this week: one with India and one with the United States.
