Breathalysing proceedure

Last weekend I was stopped and breathalysed by a local police car. Tgey said "someone" suggested I'd had a few to drink. As I hadnt had anything to drink for a week or more, I was more than happy for him to cobduct the test, and duly passed. However, before getting me to blow into the mach...

Re: Two Chevron rule

Looking for the collective wisdom please on the sign that says "Keep two chevrons apart" Unlike the smart-arses on this thread who obviously know everything, I'm going to agree with you that they're confusing. The fact that we're having this discussion at all means they've failed in their...
