Where do these greenies come from. We are such a small country that if we had no cars at all what impact on the, alleged, Global Warming would it have? none I suspect.
It's only about 20 years ago since we were warned of a new Ice age'
It sems to me that it is all getting a bit out of hand.

The goverment would be breaked....what would they tax then,,,,,,all the industries related to the car industry would collapse.

I know that,   my point is all the green stuff, out of control imho.
And another thing, never mind car tax, whisky has gone up.

 

especially if you have the flu

We are on form tonight, have you thawed out yet.

Is it 1st April?

15 mph is the most stupid idea that I have heard yet.  Everyone appears to be bleating about burning excess fuel and causing untold pollution then along comes the ar**hole brigade with the stupid idea of everyone driving in 1st or 2nd gear doing about 10 miles to the gallon very green I don't think!

The whole of Portsmouth urban area is now a 20 mph zone and believe me that is a large area.

It really is the thin end of the wedge.

The knob'eads that supposedly run this country should all be shot in my humble opinion.

It's all a vexation to the spirit.  

Yes please................tinkers

Milton Keynes, probably the best transport system of any very large town with its grid system and redways for bikes/walkers is reducing many of its grid roads (for traffic only, bikes/walkers stick to dedicated redway paths) to 40mph from 70mph.

This seems to be because stupid people - yes, those that live around Netherfield/Fishermead type estates - keep walking across roads and getting hit rather than use bridges and subways.  Then the parents are up in arms that traffic should be banned, and it was little johnny's fault that he walked out into a dual carriageway.

500m years of evolution has ensured survival of the fittest.  Unfortunately, if we pander to these incredibly stupid people, then the gene pool will reduce, and that will be the end of mankind.

People that stupid do not deserve to live

As someone intelligent with one of the cleverest children in the school I agree

got the same problem at colchester university,the students run across the nearby dual carriageway in the dark rather than walking through the underpass,unfortunately 2 or 3 have been killed in recent times so all the local do-gooders are campaigning to have the dual carriageway reduced from 70 to 30.

.. If my time there is anything to go by they're probably under the influence of one or more substances, which probably didn't help.   Don't remember an underpass when I was there though.

I remember when it dumped with snow once I managed to drive from Elmstead Market to Colchester along that road in my Morris Ital with the car about 30 degrees to the direction of travel the whole way, and the university car parks made excellent skid pans.
