From September 17, most 30mph speed limits in Wales are changing to 20mph.
This will make Wales one of the world’s first countries to have a default 20mph limit.
This is, according to the Welsh Government, to 'keep our communities safer and improve quality of life'.
In the lead up to the introduction of Welsh Government’s new legislation for 20mph speed limits, eight communities across Wales were selected for the first phase of the national programme.
As part of this Phase One Settlement Scheme, 20mph speed restrictions were introduced in Buckley, Mynydd Isa, New Brighton, Drury, Burntwood, Bryn y Baal and Alltami on February 28, 2022.
And, although generally in favour of 20mph on residential estates and around schools, hundreds of residents expressed concerns about its introduction on main roads and streets.
The Welsh Government has just recently released a list of what people need to know about the 20mph speed limit once before it is implemented.
And now drivers have seemingly taken matters into their own hands to once again protest against the impending change.
Social media group members are urging motorists who oppose the plans to tie a red ribbon or flag to their cars.
That serves as a witty reminder of the early days of motoring when a man with a red flag had to walk in front of slow-moving cars.
The Locomotive Act 1865 became known as the Red Flag Act, thanks to its extraordinary stipulation that any self-propelled road vehicle had to be preceded by a person walking at least 60 yards ahead, carrying a red flag.
