Shouldn't the Government be trying to reach targets that the electorate has requested, by means that the electorate dictates?

It won't be getting my vote if this rubbish goes through.

Off now to drive at a death defying 60 m.p.h. :evil:

The electorate voted the current government into power three times. In doing so they gave them the mandate to govern in our interests as they see fit.

The targets are those set in the document "Tomorrow's Roads: Safer for everyone"

[grumpy old man]The problem is you give old folk additional cash for winter fuel bills and pay people to breed etc. and you can pretty much engineer a win.[/grumpy old man]

I'm waiting to see a response by IAM/ROSPA/AA/RAC/ABD/SafeSpeed/PistonHeads and any other driving organisation.

Everyone talks about Education/Enforcement/Engineering.

When will someone have the guts to say that education has been taken off the list?

I iam sure the IAM/ROSPA etc will take issue with that & say very much that they all about the education element.
