I have the same reservations Peter. I’ve no doubt it’s just a case of when, not if, they become commonplace. I’d be sad to see the end of being in control but there’s so much idiotic behaviour and KSI, I fear it has to be the only way forward. Just a thought, but how would this ever work with a motorbike? I did hear a friend talking about something which used a gyroscope, so it resisted being physically pushed over. (Something like that).
I see the sun has brought the maniacs out over my way; hacking down side roads at insane speeds.
As always, it’s not their breaking the limit in itself which angers me but where they are breaking it. Oh well, so long as they catch the ones going over a newly changed dumbed down limit on a previously NSL which brings in lots of money for the Gov that’s okay then.
The way I see it, I’m glad to have lived, (was born), at a time where I have had the pleasure of motoring in an era of freedom and armed with the common sense and skill not to have hurt myself or others. I consider myself lucky not to have been ‘taken out’ by some maniac. (Yet
).
The next generation will be more protected or mollycoddled in a foolproof world than ever before. I hope I’m wrong but while this sounds like a good thing I’m sure there will be negative consequences; I’m just not sure what they will be.
