Lowering the speed to 80 km / h: the Yonne drops the signs…

This was to be expected: the very day after the start of the experiment with lowering the speed on the secondary network, dozens of 80 km / h limit signs (instead of 90) were found vandalized – twisted, in particular – on the RN 151 in the Yonne (89).

It was to be expected: the very day after the start of the experiment, dozens of signs limiting to 80 km / h (instead of 90) were found vandalized – twisted, in particular – on the RN 151 in the ‘Yonne (89).

According to the Yonne prefecture (89), no less than 55 panels (out of the 67 installed!) Were the object of the wrath of people probably very annoyed by this new repressive measure, among the by the Ministry of interior as part of .

A complaint was naturally lodged by the Interdepartmental Directorate of Central-East Roads, which ordered new panels. Just next door, in Nièvre (58), a department well known to bikers thanks to the superb Nevers Magny-Cours circuit, no degradation was observed on the portion of the RN151 where the experiment continues..  

For the record, three sections of secondary roads have been experimenting since Wednesday – and for two years – a drop in the maximum authorized speed of 10 km / h: 18 km of the RN7 in the Drôme between Croze-Hermitage and Valence (26), 17 km of the RN151 in the Nièvre and 32 km in the Yonne between La Charite (58) and Auxerre (89) and 14 km of the RN 57 in Haute-Saône between Échenoz-le-Sec and Rioz (71).
