How come these are non existent?
Why do they drop the speed to 50mph and not 60 if they want people to go a little slower? :whistle

I think it depends on the area the road is in i think, on my way to work there is a duel carriageway that passes through an industrial estate and near a housing estate, and it's 50mph there.
Hopwever when it goes past that onto an area of wasteland, no houses or anything it's up to 70. They give the road a speed depending on how built up the area is (as far as i am aware), also taking other things into account such as accident black-spots and stuff
Thats they way i thought it tbh, not too sure, anyone else able to clarify??

There's a stretch between Stone & Trentham in Staffs that is a 60MPH dual-carriagewayOriginally Posted by mladen
No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride...
I thought all dual-carriage ways were all 60 mph unless sign posted to say otherwise..
@shadowmoses- I thought that only M/ways were able to go 70mph,dont think dual c/ways go up to 70 mph but I maybe wrong
If a duel Carriageway has a double barrier between you and the oncoming traffic and is away from buit up area than you can legaly drive at 70mph...Had to learn all this when i did my psv.
The speed limit depends on the signs at the start of the section; if you are on a single carriageway that has the upper national limit (60 MPH at present) and you continue onto a dual carriageway, then the limit is 70 MPH, unless signs say different. There is a stretch of dual Carriageway on the the A1 Belfast - Newry road that was recently changed down from 70 to 60, when you enter the dual carriageway now there are 60 signs, then when it ends there are Upper National Limit signs (white circle with black diagonal) so you return to a 60 limit again
