• drink driving/ piloting limits 13 Feb 2003 (Forum)
  In contrast to driving I read recently that there is no actual legal limit to a pilots intake of alchohol, in fact they are allowed to drink prior to take off. Obviously if a pilot was found under the influence he would lose his licence and job, it just seems odd to me that they are allowed to drink and then pilot an aircraft with peoples lives under his responsibility.
• Octavia cruise control - drive by wire 16 Nov 2002 (Forum)
  Does anyone know if it's possible to get a retro-fit electronic cruise control for my Skoda Octavia (2001) SDi? It has an electronic speedometer (i.e. drops to 0 if you switch ignition off), and a "drive-by-wire" accelerator, no physical cable linking pedal to engine. Surely it should just be a "plug-in" module with a set of dash controls, (set, resume, cancel, +, - ?)
• Cars and mobile phones 4 Nov 2001 (Forum)
  Its time to stop people using mobile phones while they are driving. Everyday i will follow somebody who decides to answer a call, then the inevitable erratic driving happens - you know speed up/down , wander across lanes. The vast majority of us do not have the coordination to drive, hold a mobile and a conversation.
• Rear wheel drive tyre wear 21 Sep 2001 (Forum)

• Driving with no rear plate. 22 Aug 2001 (Forum)
  Went past several Rozzers including one speed trap and got no interest. It's back on now but I would suggest for the 'one off' long distance high risk drive this is the ideal Camera risk avoidance strategy. (And no, I didn't deliberately speed - jsut using plate removal as belt and braces...)
