uk highway code
« on: May 11, 2007, 07:02:09 am »
I found this on the polaris forum

http://www.polarischallenge.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=382

it's well worth a read. I have and signed up. The photos of daft cycle lanes in the post later on are unbelievable.

You can only sign the petition if you are a uk resident, but look at photos and laugh in disbelief.

cheers

no need to laugh in disbelief - it's an everyday reality sadly... :-(

I used the contact your mp through www.ctc.org.uk and was actually impressed with how easy it was. He even replied!

Useful tool to report blocked bridleways on there as well.
