I'm all for 20 in built up areas like Bradford on Avon, but the Wales ruling seems like sledgehammer-to-crack-a-nut legislation.

Plus, there are built up areas with huge wide roads and foot bridges that don't need to be 20. That really is painful.
I managed for 10 years after passing my test at 17 without hitting anything or anyone.

It is only 20 in the centre, and despite yokels not able to understand roundabouts or box junctions (that have not been on place for years), remain the major challenge.

Blind humpback bridges create their own speed limits and amusingly both of these remain at 30mph which makes a farce of the 20 mph clear sighted areas.
