Deliveries to be later thanks to new EU regulations

The Weston & Somerset Mercury reports on the news that new EU regulations mean that delivery vehicles will have to drive more slowly!

The new regulations state that Royal Mail vehicles will only be allowed to drive at a maximum of 56mph! To enforce this rule they'll have to be fitted with 'speed limiters'.

The effect of this is that post will arrive at some sorting offices later and impact on the working hours of Royal Mail staff.

I don't get my mail until around 1pm on most days as it is! Surely this can't get any later???
