Speed is not in itself dangerous. Dangerous driving is when your driving puts yourself or other road users in danger. I completely fail to see just what a learner driver will gain from travelling at 50mph in the inside lane of a motorway, apart from a pair of brown underpants. He will certainly not get any motorway driving experience and he could very well be endangering the lives of other road users. His driving will enforce a speed limit on the inside lane of 50mph, a speed limit of 56 mph in the middle lane and massive congestion on the outside lane. Well done – what a bloody good idea! And what a massive step forward in road safety! It is sheer idiocy like this that will cause major accidents – so just think a little before spouting such nonsense.
