Most drivers want a lower motorway speed limit in wet weather, a new survey suggests.The RAC poll of 2,100 motorists indicated that 72% would like the standard 70mph limit cut in wet conditions to boost safety and encourage better driving habits.Some 78% of respondents who supported a reduced motorway speed limit in the wet felt it would encourage some drivers to slow down, while 72% believed it was worth trying as it might save lives.Nearly two-thirds said it could improve visibility due to less spray from moving vehicles.
