Re: Ford Motor Company "hands Free system"
Jolly good stuff, I am sure that the system will handle eroded road markings, invisible road markings on wet roads, road works with ambiguous road markings, potholes, and all the little things that add to the play value of driving.

And some of the A34 off-slips are ridiculous. If you go A34 North ...

Re: Greetings
I tend to agree. I normally only use the car radio when parked while waiting for something / somebody, or on long trips when I may have it on the vain hope of picking up relevant traffic news. Traffic news has become more and more irrelevant as I find that Waze can send me off in random diversions o...

Re: Young Drivers (again)
I just watched the video of the 4/5 day Pathfinder course for 15 - 17 year olds. Extremely impressive. I love the level of emphasis on the mental elements of safe driving - something which I think is missed from a normal process of driving instruction. For the OP's grandchildren living in York, I n...
