Transport Act 1985 Section 19 Vehicle 10 Jan 2011 (Forum)

It's a Transport Act 1985 Section 19 Permit Vehicle, with the title of Small Bus Disc. Does this mean we can use bus lanes? -

automatics...... braking 15 Nov 2010 (Forum)
I am unconvinced by the left foot braking technique on autos. i have been driving autos for many years and have tried the left foot but i feel it is far less controlable than the right foot. A bit of research on the net has found that many people don't feel comfortable with it. -
