0:00.0 | At TFL, we're making journeys safer for everyone, and that includes improving safety on London's roads. |
0:07.4 | That's why we and London boroughs are lowering more speed limits to 20 miles per hour, |
0:12.3 | because 20 miles per hour roads have already reduced collisions resulting in deaths or |
0:16.8 | serious injuries by 24%. That is how we're making journeys in London safer and brighter for everyone. |

2:13.2 | and James Garner. And I love that Henley starts with him going check. Yeah. My guess is |
2:20.4 | that Henley's a really good chess player, that this is an even game. There's so much about |
2:26.4 | their relationship that is totally unspoken, you know, which I think is why I like the friendship so |
