The Alliance of British Drivers has welcomed the increases in speed limits for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) on single-carriageway and dual-carriageway roads, which come into effect today (6 April).  The limits increase from 40 to 50 mph (single carriageways), and from 50 to 60 mph (dual carriageways).

ABD chairman Brian Gregory comments, “We are particularly pleased that the outdated 40mph speed limit for HGVs on single-carriageway roads is going up.  This will reduce the speed differential between heavy and light vehicles, particularly on major roads, with a consequent reduction in delays, frustration and the need to overtake.  It is the spread of speeds, rather than average speed, that is linked to accident frequency.

He continues, “This is a good time to remind drivers of ways in which they can show consideration to others.  If you are in a queue behind a slow-moving vehicle and do not intend to overtake yourself, leave a sufficient gap for a driver overtaking from behind you to pull in if necessary.  Also, if you are driving a slow-moving vehicle, you should take note of Rule 169 of the Highway Code, which states: ‘Do not hold up a long queue of traffic, especially if you are driving a large or slow-moving vehicle.  Check your mirrors frequently, and if necessary, pull in where it is safe and let traffic pass.’ “
