The media has spun this story to suit themselves, watching any of the news channels you'd think they were starting to give out 6 points for doing 31mph in a 30 limit.
Infact I think it's a great proposal - in my mind if you were caught doing 45 in a 30 you should be happy to have got away with 6 points.
I always stick to the lower speed limits, they are there for the protection of pedestrians, the 70 limits tend to be places you don't get many people crossing the road.
