Er, yes it is a crime. You told us that in your last sentence.


It may not be in many people's eyes dangerous, including IAM (as long as you're wearing a Sam Brown), Police Roadcraft etc and if seen you may not get stopped, but it's still against the law and by doing so you are liable to prosecution.

I totally disagree you should stand around for a while and take a look :'(

Effective policing of the speed limit should do it I'd have thought.

    • Yep Monday is family festival but I think it would be churlish to avoid this on principle and if you are free at least check it out.  I was simply responding to a comment that there were not free festivals.  I've no strong feelings about Gala, and whilst I could hear it, it stopped around 11 and I've experienced worse.  Volunteering at Glastonbury and at Shambala and that bloody drum and base going on till 4 in the morning.  I'm aware Gala affects others far more but conflating this with LTNs and with Lambeth council was strange.
    • Last night was a different kind of event entirely though...  
    • We can all be cynical but I hope you or others will pop over to the free festival and share your views.  I'd go but I am away.  It looks great.  (Note I don't know why some had to post their disgust on the events page - I expect many locals will go to the free event and some to the Gala itself).
