    Hi,

    I'm amazed that this issue about the proposed 30KM speed limits all over Dublin isn't being discussed, with much opposition from motorists.

    Under the guise of Covid-19, Dublin City Council are trying to turn most of Dublin City & Dublin County, into 30KM zones.

    Ask yourself :

    - how much extra time that will add onto ever journey that you make ? Remember, this is your personal time, that will basically be taken away from you, with you being confined to your car, for longer periods, every journey.

    - is your car likely to be more or less economical, traveling at max 30KM per hour and if less, then how much more fuel will you have to buy as a result ?

    - can you honestly stick to a max of 30KM during various journeys, because if you can't, then you'll quickly be getting lots of speeding points and fines ?

    - will these widespread reduced speed limits reduce in slower transport times, in turn resulting in deliveries of goods being slower, business people getting to meetings etc. and by extension, will this cost the economy money, because ultimately, "time is money" ?

    Please don't leave it for someone else to act, everyone needs to let their voice be heard.

    Thanks.

    Thanks,

    G.
