I have been thinking of this for a while now and thought I'd ask if the idea might be worth sending on to the DVLA.

How abut a round speed sticker that says -10mph for caravans as well as the 60 mph ones?

DVLA bound to like that, more bureaucracy, more for the police to check, more cost to the motorist Surprised Brussels hasn't thought of this already

Bit pointless IMHO. If we who tow didn't understand it, what chance for solo motorists?

But you don`t have to do 10mph less than a solo car in a 40 zone, or a 30 or 20 either. So what is the point?

Why not just have a 50 sticker instead of a 60

Drivers ought to know the speed limits anyway, and not just for what they drive themselves.

If the sticker needs explaining to users on a caravanning forum then it will mean nothing to the average motorist.

I've never found cars overtaking on a single carriageway national limit an issue. Chances are there'll be a lorry within sight either behind or in front anyhow.
