Rolling speed limit has vastly improved the m62.
Mines a bike. Motorbikes should be exempt from the speed limits.

Ffs lads. Even the tans on radio ulster are having a right old chuckle at the oirish this morning.
And if Verona had turned up, it would have brought it up to a whole other level again.
How was the delightful Cinnamon looking?
1 million is only chump change down here ffs
Maybe they could put it in the tuck shop that cost ā¬1.2m to renovate and was closed a few years later
That must have set the tone
Enda Kenny had a 40-year political career. Until he became Taoiseach, he rose without trace. His achievements areā¦ well, arguable.
For instance, he pledged in 2007 to end the trolley culture in hospitals. When he quit as Taoiseach in 2017, things were worse than ever. Iām trying and failing to remember anything - anything whatever - he did to try to end the trolley culture.
These days, Kenny is a mere TD. In a period after he quit as Taoiseach, he signed himself into the Dail on 79 occasions. Yet, on 71 of those days, he missed every single vote.
It looks like he signed in - which qualified him to get a travel and accommodation allowance (TAA). And on 71 of the 79 days he then did, what? Who knows?
In short, heās taking the TD wages (ā¬96,189) and the TAA (ā¬47,000 on the period RTE covered) but heās selling the job short until he takes his pension (around ā¬130,000).
In what other position would you not get fired for this?
Fine Gael gave its view, in a statement. This behaviour, they said, āis a long-standing traditionā, for a former Taoiseach.
Oh, well, itās traditional. Thatās fine, so.
Try it, though, in your own job. Where were you yesterday?
Twiddling my thumbs.
What? Why?
Oh, we all do it. Long-standing tradition.
