I passed an artic today which bore a sign: "This vehicle limited to 52mph."
I understood the legal limit for artics on the motorway to be 56mph.
So is this voluntarily lower limit to save fuel?
Some artics seem to go faster than 56mph, are there any circumstances in which that's legal?
The artic with the lower limit was being operated by Kuhne and Nagel, and the trailer had the livery of Waitrose supermarket.
I wonder what impact the 52mph limit has on the driver and his schedule.
Not to mention poor old Zeddo, who might have to wait longer for his venison medallions in a cranberry jus.
