Diana Mond, It always makes me smile at the figures you produce just to verify for those who are interested. 46% exceed the speed limit on motorways. 8% on single carriageways. 53% in 30mph zones. to put these figures in perspective the proportion of drivers exceeding the above by more than 10 mph is, motorways 10% single carriageways 1% 30mph zones 6%. So the higher ...
I have been a cyclist, motorcyclist and car driver for many decades, keep to the highway code and respect most other road users. These cyclists were riding contary to the highway code. To slow traffic from a national speed limit to an 8 mph crawl is dangerous in itself and for the sake of a hobby for health and/or relaxation is, in my opinion, irresponsible and an outright act of selfishness to ...

If you’re a hard-working motorist paying hundreds of pounds each year on road tax, then it’s time to have a word with your ...
Thought this might be useful for people.
On my drive back to Dawlish from Exeter I happened to come off the A380 and over the mini roundabout onto Colley Lane B3192, the road that runs passed the Ashcombe Adventure centre and on up passed the golf course on the way to Teignmouth. As luck would have it ,bad luck that is, a group of around 10-12 or so lycra clad louts on cycles were in front of me and several other cars. During the ...
thanks @Lynne . i see ironically that the best chance they have of bringing charges is for unnecessary suffering to an animal, which in this case would be the dog.
Now that the band have been exposed, when will they start to play the music I wonder?
