20mph Speed Limit in central Brighton

I've been following the story in The Argus for a while now and the comments are astonishing. The most incredible argument I've seen is someone explaining that 20mph is more dangerous as people will have to drive around looking at their speedometer, thus taking their eyes off the road.

This one takes the biscuit though - "The honest, hard working motorist's have to put up with a lot of **** from the anti car brigade... Lets win a bit of power back!!"

I think that attitude is nothing short of delusional.

If you think you can handle it go have a look at the comment threads.

The only time I came close to causing an accident in a car was when I was fixating on the speedo, on a road with an unreasonably low limit.
