Hmmm, nice Utopian idea in theory.
Why would the ID/Travelcard thing be necessary if it's free for everyone? |

| One thing that really gets me about the charge is the fact that hybrids and electric cars don't have to pay it. I just can't understand how they can continue to call it a congestion charge. I commute into central London every day by motorbike and congestion's as bad as ever. I'd say the main culprit... |

I totally agree about the taxis - they are particularly unpredictable.
In my opinion, buses in London are too wide, especially considering all the bollards and what-not placed to 'control' the flow of traffic. |

I have a hyena on mine..
But seriously, I think California has really strict emissions standards. Do they fit cats to bikes over there? |

| I cycle a lot in London and I have to agree on the sheer pointlessness of the cycle lanes delineated by dashed lines. On the King's Road in Chelsea, there are massive pot-holes in the cycle lane! And I find that lorries always stick over into the cycle lane making it impossible to progress sometimes... |

I believe they are called "safety cameras" and are known by the distinctive flash in the mirrors..
Sorry, I'll get my coat.. |

| There must surely be a warning that there are traffic lights ahead on the A580..? |

| It certainly raises some serious points. I does assume, though, that all motorists are perfect drivers. Is it not possible to argue that installing lights causes a reduction in accidents because they set clear priorities? |
