• Big insurance hike if caught using mobile phone! 10 Apr 2008 (Forum)
  It has been illegal to use a mobile phone while driving since December 2003. But this hardly stopped the number of drivers prepared to break the law. New legislation to increase the penalty for using a handheld mobile phone while driving came in to force in February.
• Advanced driving test: IAM or RoSPA? 2 Mar 2006 (Forum)
  I have nowt against the British Legion - they do great work -- but they do tend to be rather old and conservative sorta people. I have plenty of friends in that category, but I'm not sure how I feel about them observing my driving; I have visions of a white-moustached man in a blazer with an AA badge on his lapel disparaging my lack of driving gloves and muttering things about "girls" driving. Apart from that, has anyone any recommendations on the choice between the IAM and RoSPA?

• Braking through corners 23 Jun 2007 (Forum)
  I have noticed in my area that learner drivers are being taught to drive as if the car is rear wheel drive, i.e. Brake at the apex of the corner, instead of before and accelerate through the corner. Or is it just me? {Typo in subject header corrected - DD}

• Cambelt Busters 21 Sep 2003 (Forum)
  HJ is keen on chains for cam drives as belts, it seems, are liable to break. Are belt breakages down to anything in particular, such as hard driving? Are some cars known belt-busters? Where can I make a chain/belt comparison online for a prospective new purchase?
