One in six drivers 'top 100mph'

ONE IN SIX (17%) of drivers admits to driving at more than 100mph on the motorway regularly in the UK, even though the speed limit is 70mph. More than twice that number (38%) own up to driving at above 90mph, while 11% say they speed at 50mph or more in residential and urban areas where there is a 30mph speed limit. Research by Direct Line shows 61% of drivers have also exceeded the 20mph limit.

Citroën C-Elysée & Citroën C4 L

The Citroën C-Elysée & Citroën C4 L are two new Citroens aimed at budget compact saloon buyers in emerging markets. The biggest car market in the world is actually the compact saloon, even if Europe, and particularly the UK, has taken to the hatch and compact SUV instead. We recently had the Peugeot 301 arrive as an offering for more budget-minded car buyers in countries like Turkey, Eastern Europe, Russia, Ukraine, Greece, Middle East and Africa, and the new Citroen C-Elysée is the Citroen take on the same objective.

Council Street Light Switch Off Policy Challenged

THE AA has raised concerns over the practice of turning off street lights at night, saying that councils are "ignoring the findings of road-accident inquests" in their bid to save money. The motoring organisation cited the fact that at least five pedestrians and a cyclist have been killed since 2009 because, according to accident investigators at inquests, drivers had little or no chance of avoiding the collisions on blacked-out roads with speed limits of 40mph or higher. The AA added that although some councils have recognised the danger and turned their street lights back on, others were "ignoring inquest findings".
