Correct.
And what's the point of having people driving like cunts at 20 mph?
It's twaddle. The speed limit thing is a massive red herring designed to placate people who don't actually understand what it's like to cycle on the road in the UK. If drivers didn't drive like cunts around cyclists then the speed limit would be self-enforcing.
I expect those poor riders killed by HGVs were crushed as the vehicle was being manoeuvred at less than 20mph, not slammed head on at 45.
