Restaurant damaged by car.
I am glad that the motorists on these newsgroups have finally accepted
that cars are much more destructive and dangerous than bicycles. Maybe motorists are looking to go into the demolition business judging by how many buildings they are trying to demolish these days. The latest example is here... "Denby Pottery restaurant crash driver released No-one was in the restaurant at the time An 18-year-old, who was arrested after the car he was driving crashed into the restaurant at Denby Pottery, has been released on bail..."

Nobody has ever said that a bike would cause more damage than a car. They have said that bikes can cause serious injury when they hit a person. Maybe motorists are looking to go into the demolition business judging by how many buildings they are trying to demolish these days. We should make it illegal to do this. The latest example is here... "Denby Pottery restaurant crash driver released No-one was in the restaurant at the time An 18-year-old, who was arrested after the car he was driving crashed into the restaurant at Denby Pottery, has been released on bail..." Oh look , it *is* illegal -- Alex |

Stephen Bagwell gurgled happily, sounding much
like they were saying: How many less tonnes of carbon dioxide have been produced because of Americans driving hybrid Toyota and Lexus cars? Compared to what? (Total non-sequitur ignored for the moment) |

I wonder if you can post a link substantiating your claim that someone, anyone, has actually said that cars are not much more destructive and dangerous than bicycles? -- Paul - xxx '96/'97 Landrover Discovery 300 Tdi Dyna Tech Cro-Mo comp |

Where do people think the electricity comes from??? Also - where do they think the car comes from??? The answer to both of these is 'a factory that puts out lots of nasty black smoke'. |
