What the petition asks

We want the government to require that all road vehicles are limited to 70mph using a speed limiter. The maximum speed for road users is 70mph and therefore no vehicle (other than emergency services) require a vehicle to exceed this speed.
Reduce road accidents. Save tax payers money with less crashes.
