    Speed cameras cut injuries by a quarter - RAC research

    What's the sample time period, did they sample before and after the installation of speed camera? Did they take into account road layouts and signage? Did they sample individual driver habits? Have they taken into account advancements in car building? Did they take into account what time...

    Turbocharger dead on a car.......

    Turbos although simple have quite a lot going on, the ones on the Saab (petrol) have oil and water feeds to keep them cool and lubricated, if the oil has degraded that could jam them up, wear down the bearings and going on to wreck other things with looseness. Similar with the water and some...

    Petrol prices rigged for a decade

    You forgot VAT, on top of wholesale, on top of duty. Nope, only a reduction in fuel price will work in any way. People keep forgetting, what delivers all the goods we buy? wagons. If they have a 400 litre tank (seen some larger ones up to 800) and average 8>12 MPG depending on load and...

    Angry driver let off after attacking cyclist

    Funny, that is exactly what I saw. Cars parked to the left, car on the right, driver barely over the central line. Hardly the 6 feet that the highway code requires or a glowing example of safe driving and road planning, particularly when further up the road was obviously clearer and safer...

    Taxing the disabled *@~#

    I have harassed more MP's than I care to remember about these issues (which include many millions of working people in the changes), which are set to get a whole lot worse if you read the fine print of the legislation they are forcing through like a gang bang in a prison shower block. All this...

    Too much tax

    Have this problem as a freelance, best you can do is give your local office a call. I have had cheques through the post before now, some I kept photocopies of just to remind me of the time I got paid 4 figures before the decimal place by the government!

    Is Lotto a Tax on the Poor?

    Which country is this in? As to lotto, the odds are in the trillions against winning, you've got more chance statistically of winning putting 50p on a horse. Mentally to people? hope is something we are all capable of thinking, suppose to many out there they hope their personal odds will...
