| Can we not introduce this lower lever with an endorsement? The general view is that .8 is safe if not exceeded although borderline. So we bring in .5. I would suggest to exceed .5 you get a 4 point endorsement, exceed .8 - as now, a year's ban but further if someone is well in excess of these limits... |

| Having read through the subject of the original post; nothing actually surprises me! Siezing and crushing cars 'illegally'????? Redress for this???? Don't forget, they shot a man in the head EIGHT TIMES on an underground train in London in 2005 - and no-one has been held responsible! Let's just be g... |

| The easy way to cure the abuse of sending NIPs out in the post is to change the legislation to say that they must be delivered in person by a Police Officer in uniform. Seeing as 80% of exceeding 30mph is less than 40mph, they'd be likely to go and personally NIP those doing 50 or 60 + A bit of sani... |

| For the record. If I'd been drinking in a bar when such a story came on the telly, and someone with, I presume, the grin of a cheshire cat, had come out with such a comment - shall we just say a 'breach of the peace' may have come about. So you're not just angry, you're violent too? And you're a co... |

| I don't think I would have put quite the same way as Nos4r2 , but essentially he has identified the issues. I feel Mr Angry has got himself hung up on the emotional issues, but if anything is to be done about such accidents we need to move on to considering the rational issues. Perhaps that will be... |

I think this will be my last post on the matter because reaching any morality within you over what you originally penned is certainly beyond me.

If the boy had been killed by lightning, would you mock that it serves him right because of Faraday? If he's more scared of the police than a busy dual carriageway then quite frankly, DARWIN... |

In this instance, this 'pleasure' has been derived from the actual death of a 7 year old kid, through the a... |

Now it's about cash... The only way to stop this legalised theft is to raise the limits so that the... |
