News: Speeding Lorry Driver Calls For HGV Limit To Be Raised

pocketgpsworld.com
A lorry driver, who was caught speeding by a speed camera, is calling for people to participate in the government review of HGV speed limits after describing the current limit as "life-threatening".

The limit for Alan Kaye's 44-tonne lorry, and other HGVs weighing in excess of 7.5 tonnes, is 40mph.

Mr Kaye was caught doing 48mph on the A15 at Snitterby, and has since been urging people to get on board with proposed government changes to HGV speed limits.

In a bid to boost trade, the Department of Transport has proposed plans to raise the limit on single carriageways for HGVs over 7.5 tonnes to 45 or 50mph.
