Car accident at the plough


Recommended Posts

It's still there, in quite a precarious position. It's kind of focussing drivers' attention though, like when traffic lights are out; road users are using eye contact and courtesy. Maybe there should be an abandoned wreck left at every junction.

It's not a bad idea at that - I don't know if they still do it, when I was a kid I can remember in Italy at the foot of some of the mountain passes there were large placards with photos of people who'd been killed on them recently, also I recall in a German service station on the Autobahn a prominent display of fatal accidents which had happened within 50km of the facility. Anything to make people think!

    • That is clearly not true. I see car drivers breaking the law on an hourly basis - jumping red lights, speeding, not obeying the general rules. Plus they are operating considerably more dangerous machinery and should have a greater responsibility of care to other road uses. You can see who causes the most harm by the stats. 
    • Looking for a suit for an 11 year old. Quite specific, white with black thin stripes.  Trying to replicate Michael Jacksons smooth criminal costume.  A blue linen shirt and white tie.    Thank you !!!!!!!
    • A quick Google found this, amongst other things: "Social impact models are frameworks or approaches that guide how organizations or initiatives address social or environmental problems."
    • "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck then it must be a duck" comes to mind Unfortunately, a large number of cyclists do exhibit selfish amd anti social behaviour which, regardless of how many good cyclists there are, is seen as the norm.  It's a bit like one car driver jumping a red light and all car drivers getting tarred by the same brush. Perception is the issue and if cyclists all obeyed the rules, everyone would be less anti them but unfortunately that isn't the case 🤔
