Excellent Value.


Relevance to URC - none.

Stopping distances for bicycles do not appear in the HC ... and so
cannot be of any consequence.

I'm am pleased to see that the criminal was suspended on the day of
her crime and sentenced the next day.

Simple Simon isn't bright enough to make points.

Dave - intelligent enough to realise that a push bike, like a skateboard, is
a kid's toy, not a viable form of transport.

Let me guess, she only got a three year ban for putting the lives of
others seriously at risk? Who is to say she won't do it again after
three years, especially if she happens to be an alcoholic.

BTW, why aren't alcoholics permanently banned from driving? Is it
because it might adversely affect pub revenues, particularly those
with car parks?

Pubs, with or without car parks, are a useful part of the community,
unlike Doug!

No.

It's because we live in a free country.

Clearly, that doesn't suit everyone.
