The whole point is that there was no-one else around and as I was already in the Main Road i.e. The Walworth Road heading towards Dulwich that there was no point in my Red Light at that time. What happens in sensible areas is that anyone driving in the early hours from a side road triggers the traffic system which makes sense, but there were no pedestrians or other Motorists anywhere and yet I had to give way to the Green light in favour of the Bus Lane.


If a Bus comes along then, naturally, they should trip the Light system and gain precedence but there were no buses or anyone else around so why was it necessary for me to stop when I was in the Main Road?


Coming down the A13 from Barking thru' The Blackwall Tunnel the cars are on permanent GREEN unless a Bus comes along in the inside lane and the bus gets priority by triggerring the lights and the Motorists lights turn Red. THAT makes sense.


Free-flowing cars and the bus gets priority at the lights so continually moves but there were no buses at 5.00AM at the time I was there and no-one wanted to enter from the side-roads and there were no pedestrians so what was the point of me stopping Huguenot? Pray tell...

Simonet, I am talking about the pissed off attutide you have towards the points you have acrued so far, the ones where you were over the speed limit, not your grateful attitude to the warden who let you off.


No I'm not a driver. My concerns come from being a pedestrian which is why I think people like you should stay off the road.

zeban I had established you weren't a driver after your opening gambit.:))


I just hope that every single time you cross a road that you do it EXACTLY withinthe Law and never cross any road apart from the obvious places like Zebra Crossings/Traffic Lights.


Please confirm that you have never transgressed as you expect high standards in motorists so I assume you have ALWAYS crossed at designated places. That is so, isn't it ?


p.s. I'm sorry that 200,000 (mainly ) London miles without a single incident is not goodenough for you but I am at a loss on how I can improve on an exemplary driving record, in ( mainly ) London, of all places and yet you still say "people like you should stay off the road."


I like the "people like me" bit ! So how can I improve on perfectly obeying every Road Law and on having no incidents in the last 12 years, please ??

What makes me curious is why the first 3 penalty points didn?t increase your caution when driving, and why it took getting a further 6 and the possibility of losing your licence and your job before you suddenly reverted to following the rules of the road?


I managed to get 3 points last summer by doing 30 over Tower Bridge, as I missed the sign saying the speed limit was 20 (it?s a small one), so thought I was within the speed limit. I?m still amazed that I managed to do 30, as every other time I?ve been over it, there has been so much traffic that doing 10 mph is a challenge! It was early on a Saturday morning is the only way to account for it. I was always pretty good at sticking to the speed limit anyway, but I?m even more careful and observant now.


I am also quite curious about this stranger who got into your car and insisted on being taken to Harrow? when did s/he make their escape in your little story?

Exactly Twirly.


It's not the fact that you've made a mistake Simonet- everyone makes mistakes, but it's your nonchalent attitude I have a problem with. You don't seem to have learnt your lesson, in fact it seems you don't think you were in the wrong at all, therefore it seems you will still continue to make these mistakes, in the hope that people will let you off or be 'flexible' when you plead with them about what a 'mistake' you've made. As you have indeed demonstrated.

I thought the same, Jeremy, but not enough emoticons for my chief suspect.

This is what actually occurred in "my little story".


The traffic in Piccadilly Circus was not moving due to the traffic chaos at the (old) Trafalgar Square junction. A complete stranger of Mediterranean appearance suddenly opened my passenger door and insisted that I take him to Harrow.

I informed him that I was not a Cab and, surrealistically, he told me that he knew that but still wanted me to take him to Harrow. I got out of my car clutching the keys and made it clear I wasn't going anywhere and he, eventually, got out and walked away! lol...


Whilst this was a HARROWing experience it had nothing to do with my getting, rightfully, stopped but I used it as an excuse that I was disorientated. I was not disorientated but my quick thinking might have got me the benefit of the doubt with the Policeman.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
