speed demon
From the Guardian of 1826, complaining about the driving of the horse-drawn London Mail Cart:
“The speed at which it was going could not, we think, be less than fourteen or fifteen miles per hour, which, in a crowded thoroughfare, is absolutely intolerable.”
Quite right. Lord forfend that traffic, be it motorised or otherwise, should reach such manifestly dangerous speeds, upon Britain’s roads. If such lunacy continues, we may well see people being injured, or even killed, on our roads. No amount of haste is worth a human life, as any sane man would surely agree.
Blue Witch says:
So, how fast will traffic be going in another 80 years?
