Better get my debit card ready !

Right lack of sleep & crabby so time to have a rant ....

New proposals going through Parliament soon could see a crack down on "anti social" driving - BBC News - On-the-spot fines planned for careless driving

This is all well and good but will it tackle the idiots that hog the middle or outside lane at crawling speeds thus forcing people who actually want to do the speed limit to either undertake or "flash" their lights to make their intention known.

Further still we all know the curse of the uninsured driver, i think it was quoted recently that an uninsured driver puts around £100 per year on our premiums - we have the technology now (ANPR) to catch these morons out. Would it not be better money spent increasing the purge of these menace to our Society and not pick on the easier targets of those that fracture not break the Law.

Hmm in need of coffee - let me know your thoughts, (to the above not my addiction to coffee )

I'm a little worried about this plan too.

I'd understood the term "careless driving" isn't well-defined so can be interpreted differently by different police officers.

Many people don't think long term and may make the mistake of preferring to pay an instant fine rather than get a second opinion from the court on whether they had actually committed a driving offence in the first place.

This will cause a problem, it would be better to have more Police cars on the road, like the good old days!
