'I'm sure driving around Sheffield in second gear will be stress free': Reader's letter

Craig Leggitt, S5, on the news a consultation is opening into making Sheffield a 20mph city...

I see Sheffield’s brain dead council are at it again regarding motorists, they are to consider a blanket 20mph speed limit on all Sheffield roads, citing friendlier roads, less pollution, traffic running more smoothly and less stress on drivers.

They say it will encourage more cyclists, who no doubt will be travelling faster than the vehicles themselves, it's all about cyclists with this lot.

I'm sure driving around Sheffield in second gear will be stress free, watching the speedo instead of the road no doubt.
