Limitation to 80 km / h: senators ask for the results of the experiment

The government announcement on the speed reduction to 80 km / h on departmental roads calls for a simple question: ask for the results of the experiment carried out for two years on three French sections and completed on July 1, 2017.

This legitimate question was asked on Thursday, December 14 in the Senate and then on December 20 in the National Assembly by a deputy from the presidential majority..

Parliamentarians logically expected the production and analysis of these results.

They called on the government to show pedagogy so that any decision-making is well understood and accepted by motorists.

They expected from the government convincing arguments, allowing to hope that such a measure, even unpopular, be effective and especially not counter-productive..

In return, the national representation was only entitled to the invective, seeing itself accused of faltering in the fight against road crime..

In order not to respond to the substance, the government has chosen the posture of demagoguery by seeking to make elected officials feel guilty..

This method will inevitably fuel questions and suspicions about this carefully concealed experiment. The government is making a big mistake by refusing a debate which is certainly difficult but which would have been courageous and salutary.

For these reasons, the signatories ask you to produce these results before committing to the generalization of speed reduction on departmental roads..
