Sir – Your support for a 20mph limit (Leader, April 23) is tempered by the wry observation that “it is hard to drive at more than 20mph in Oxford anyway”.
Country drivers are not so easily dissuaded, and regularly manage to blast through the narrow, potholed streets of our town at well over 30mph, doubtless seeking to emulate the InterCity 125 which they’re rushing to catch.
If the county council has any signs left over, could they be despatched to Wild West Oxfordshire post haste — or, at least, at 20mph?
Richard Fairhurst, Charlbury
