The only way to save some of the poor souls that have to

I have seen FOUR oncoming drivers talking into mobile phones
today, so the current penalties for that offence can't be a
deterrent.

Like **** you have.

Four drivers in 36 miles is not unusual.

********. You are so bored that you are just looking for replies
to your trolling and making things up.
This is a cycling group, not a driving group. I'm a driver, but
if I post anything here it is always to do with cycling, not
driving. Post something on cycling, not driving. You are
getting as bad as Bod.

Those four did not include many more who were staring down at
their laps thus not looking where they were going, so I suspect
there were more than four in reality. You also post about
walking your dog on here with your chisel for
protection, so maybe your should post in a walking group instead
of here?

And a personal assault group.

Carrying knives/screwdrivers and chisels etc is exactly what gang
members do.

Yip.

The point is that ALL gang members carry knives, most cyclists do
not and neither do most pedestrians.
see the difference?


Which sharply pointed objects can you legally carry? | James ...
11 Feb 2010 - Section 139 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 makes it an
offence to have "any article which has a blade or is sharply pointed"
in a public place. The only type of knife that is excluded from this
definition is a "folding pocketknife", a penknife in normal parlance,
with a blade of three inches or less.

Ffs get a life.


We are. We do not want it to be terminated by a sharpened chisel.

When I was 14 in 1972, I used to carry a scout's sheath knife on my belt in public.

Same here, but times have changed. No scout went around threatening
other folk and the knives were certainly not carried for protection either.

1970's rural Somerset everyone carried knives, as a tool not a weapon.
