• Driving + Phone = Points 27 Jun 2003 (Forum)

Seeing the amount of people that are driving along while on the phone, and worse still, texting, this is long overdue.

• Is Police driving driving driving standards down ? 19 Apr 2008 (Forum)
  I know that we have all had to pass a test, and should know the right answers, but I also know, from teaching another child to drive, that even then doubts can remain and poor examples feed those doubts, and good examples with experience teach good driving. I am not bashing the police's efforts in all directions, from what I have seen of foot and local cycle patrols, their bearing and manner is pretty much unimpeachable, and when away from their cars I have no complaints, but I do wonder if the local patrol car driving standards are slipping somewhat.
