One of the things that attracted me to buying a Morgan was that I didn't need to go particularly fast to enjoy my driving. I don' know if it's just me getting older but I sometimes find it hard to figure out just what the speed limit is on a particular piece of road. I do try to concentrate on the speed limit but these often change on a single stretch of road and can seem to bear no relation to the nature of the risk or environment e.g. Some villages have 40mph limits and some 30mph (and some 50mph). Then there are the 30mph dual carriageways with no footpath alongside and 60mph dual carriageways with a footpath and houses either side. Then there's the stretch of A1 near Biggleswade that randomly goes from 50 to 60 to 70mph for no particular reason. All very confusing. I always take it that unless there are signs to suggest otherwise every so often, the National Speed Limit applies; 30mph in built up areas, 60mph outside and 70mph on dual carriageways etc. Trouble is you do sometimes miss these signs. They'll get me one day I know.
