Entirely unashamed anti car propaganda, and the more the better.

Nearly one in 3 drivers caught committing an offence in front of brightly marked police car. Time to ban driving until they demonstrate they can be trusted.

 
I've just remembered something I saw in Birmingham recently; emblematic of the way in which our urban environments have been trashed by car-centric design. This is pretty much in the city centre too.

Someone up the road from my mum's house has had enough:

It's common land either side and the cattle and horses roam in the summer, couple killed every year. People used to follow the valley A roads when i was a kid but these routes across the common have been getting steadily busier, and think the lack of hedges or fencing and being flat with good visibility encourages the speeders.
 
That's cheeky, on a day when only half the buses run and nearly nobody uses them anyway, make them free ... how about making them free on a rainy Thursday y'buggers?? :mad:
True but still a good deal and plenty of buses from our town run, out in the villages far fewer or none I suppose

I’m off to town to collect my glasses as don’t want to walk in the rain then either off to Paignton or Totnes for a walk / browse / film

Depends if I make the Totnes bus in time

I'm all for having car free day on a Thursday instead of appeasing the murder machine drivers and doing it on a Sunday. And closing all roads with a bus service along them to cars, on that Thursday.
 
Just realised this change in the budget that will classify double-cab pick ups as cars so that when supplied by a company the employee will have to pay tax on it as a benefit in kind.

Good news and will hopefully stop twats driving them around cities quite as much.
