A national newspaper called me anti-motorist because of my support of 20mph speed limits in built up areas. It turns out no other recent policy has done more to save drivers money. Saving lives and saving money, what’s not to like? theguardian.com/money/2025/jan…

Sad that reducing funding to the police wasn't an option. Had my say in the comments. The police service in the UK enables/creates/protects criminals in its own ranks while being institutionally bigoted in almost every way (that's what their own reports say).

If anyone has actually bothered using a Lime Bike before, you’ll know you need to take a photo of it at the end of the ride, to show it has been safely parked. Upright. If it’s not, you get charged the call-out fee for Lime to come and pick it up. What’s happening here, are disgruntled fuckwits pushing/kicking them over, as they oppose @limebike and green transport. @skynews please do better.

The SUV that many think of as safe for their kids is actually not safe at all.

Kid cycling on the pavement because the cycle lane is blocked by parked cars, is hit by a bus and dies from "multiple chest injuries". Collision investigator blames kid for not using the cycle lane (which was blocked) and not wearing a helmet (which doesn't cover his chest). 🙄

British people: Americans are so stupid. Everyone can see why they have so much gun violence, why don’t they do something about it? Also British people: The number of deaths on the road is a shocking mystery. The causes of it cannot possibly be understood.

"I understand why you're doing it but for heaven's sake... ...and then you see the scenes in Spain." It's a relief to see @mrjamesob connecting the dots. So few journalists are. Direct action from ordinary people is needed more than ever to force those in power to act.

Why would they be interested in dangerous driving when bus stop bypasses are the real issue?

@UFO_London @BBCBreakfast @TfL BBC & NFB didn't mention the women killed on a pavement when she was hit by a car at speed? Also noting that since this report these are scenes at bus stops in Dagenham and Birmingham that WON'T get a 10 minute feature because it's moto-normalised. @benthompson @sallynugent
