Re: Traffic calming?

What is this for? https://goo.gl/maps/mfM2n8vJ1pooJagEA Usually these are placed for traffic calming or to encourage large vehicles to not clip poles or building overhangs.

Re: Reg Local - How to pass an Advanced Motorcycle Test

Some good stuff in there and useful pointers. I know no video is perfect, however ... Awful junction approach. No adjustment of speed, just relying on the horn (I noticed I was guilty of this one of my vids and have adjusted since) https://youtu.be/KN4dCOD_h4A?t=947 Classic Hazard Perception Test f...

Really? This will go well

It's only Oxford, but it's the concept that worries me.

If you can't read it, the council is planning on controlling car drivers' movements.

Re: Highway Code Review for cyclists, pedestrians and horse riders

Quite a bit of time has passed since this all became 'live'. We were promised a full driver education publicity campaign. Has anyone seen anything?
