I was trying to work out who "HowSoonIsNow" was. Thought it might be you at first Peter, but now I don't think so. Perhaps he'll reveal himself here. Anyway, in replying to the previous sanctimonious comments, he said pretty much everything that I'd been shouting at the screen when reading them (and the main article, for example the blatant RTTM statistic). Saved me the bother!

"The freedom provided by the motor vehicle is not universally applauded, however: there are those who resent the loss of state control over individual choice that the car represents. Such people rarely admit their prejudices openly; instead, they make false or exaggerated claims about the adverse effects of road transport in order to justify calls for higher taxation or restrictions on mobility."

Definitely not me - I'm too busy at work

As a deliberate policy I tend not to leave comments relating to newspaper articles and blogs as, compared with forum postings, they are essentially ephemeral and will be forgotten tomorrow.

Good to see he got in a reference to safe speed Might be worth concocting a general reply with an internet address in - then cut and paste when similar opportunities arise. It might increase the 'footfall' at Safespeed for very little effort.
