The BNP want the speed limit reduced to 20mph in areas around schools and such and they also want the limit increased to either 80mph or 90mph on the motorway.

I agree with both of these.

So many accidents are caused with people going too fast around built up areas, especially around schools where the children are young and are not aware of the dangers and can just run out into the road. At least if this happened there would be less chance of death because the car SHOULD be travelling 20mph.

Nobody goes 70mph on the motorway anyways, generally people go a lot faster. If you're a responsible driver, driving over 70mph is okay. Most motorway accidents are caused by careless driving, tiredness rather than people going too fast.
