00:00 But 20s did use to annoy me as a driver.
00:03 I get their safety benefits as pedestrians,
00:06 but ultimately, I mean, we'll have to see how it goes
00:10 in Wales, I'm not sure how effective it's been so far.
00:13 Doesn't improve our trips, to be honest.
00:15 - What do you think, when you see a driver
00:18 doing 40 in the 30s, then?
00:20 - I kind of think you're just a little bit irresponsible,
00:22 'cause it's not only your life that you're putting at risk,
00:24 it's everyone else's.
00:25 You're not only damaging yourself,
00:26 you're damaging the health and the livelihood of other people
00:29 and it's just, it's not the safest, is it?
00:31 Let's be honest, it's a 30 for a reason.
00:33 So, just stick to it.
00:34 - Just the traffic, like the traffic's bad enough
00:38 as it is already, especially in like big cities.
00:41 Enforcing that's only just gonna make people angrier
00:44 and probably not stick to the current 30.
00:46 - Do you think it would make it safer?
00:49 - No.
00:50 - Why not?
00:53 - Just 'cause we've already got things like traffic lights
00:55 and stuff in place.
00:56 (laughs)
00:59 So I just feel like putting that in's just another thing
01:02 that people can choose to ignore.
