The Scottish Government is considering reducing the national speed limit on country roads by 10mph.
The transport secretary announced a public consultation this morning.
The proposals would see the current limit of 60mph on single-carriageway roads dropped to 50mph.
However, the current 40mph limit for HGVs would be changed to 50mph, which is in line with England and Wales.
