TRF Forums

I know TRF state no more than 25mph on green lanes but is there a law for this in place because you never see a speed limit sign either end of the road ,

My understanding is that this is more a TRF code of conduct rather than law.

I think it's fair to say that if conditions and circumstances be right most will exceed this at some stage.

At the other extreme I have an engines off policy for horses.

Most green lanes are national speed limit.

However the law expects motorists to travel at a speed that's safe and appropriate for the road conditions. For motorcyclists this is 25mph on green lanes. For land rover discoveries this is 5-10mph.

Oh....dear....here we go again

And another place to drop my TRF HI VIZ ARMBAND appeal into

the law expects us to ride like that ,, so it isnt compulsory then ??
Likewise i also kill me engine if horses are about , but cant help wonder why horse riders dont use the marker system that we use on the roads or find some way to warn us they are around , which would be safer for all of us ...

i have just found this link which is interesting and talks about 20mph voluntry speed limit

I'm not saying nothing

Mick they ain't goin to buy into it mate coz they are afraid they can't live up to them .....all the time.

Then trailriding is surely doomed in this fair isle,more and more people want to do it but less and less people want to help to do it

Unless we can enlist enough support to clean up our act and then spread the Gospel
