Respect for motorists is overdue
IT'S party conference time, and politicians will be after our votes. Some respect for millions of drivers is overdue.
We've contributed over 400 billion to public funds since 1997, but haven't had the service we've paid for.
Now new government rules will land heavy costs on many innocent drivers who successfully challenge prosecutions that should never have been brought
Instead of wasting millions on developing unpopular road-pricing schemes, the next government should make best use of existing road space, and stop the gratuitous removal of road space by different authorities. Cash-strapped authorities should look to improve safety most cost-effectively by engineering out hazards and the ongoing education of road users.
