the answer is to have a lowish speed limit in m/way road works ONLY when the work force is there...say 50mph
have a 65mph limit, (because the lanes are narrower etc) when the workforce are not there
...and have an 85mph limit the rest of the time on the general m/way (maybe variable for bad weather, like France does).
we've all moved on from the times when the 70mph limit was set
for people not to notice the current cameras in roadworks, just shows how frighteningly unaware some drivers are....but there again, try standing at the scene of an accident at night, in a Bertie Bassett enormous refelctive jacket, with three vehicles with various blue/red lights flashing, placed in sensible warning positions...and STILL watch them ploughing in as usual...quite what has registered on their tiny brains I have no idea, but it looks like an early Christmas tree..in the middle of the road...surely that ought to register surprise if nothing else
or...come up behind them at speed, with the new blue lamps that are issued, which burn your retinas out (so much so, there's a switch to dim them if you have to stand near them for any lenght of time)...you can see the road signs, for a good 600 yards plus, in fornt of you, glowing an alternate bright blue colour and the inside's of their cars lighting up with a big blue aura...and yet they STILL don't notice something's up...what do they think?...overflying spaceship? local house with dicso lights?
