@BBCLondonNews The increase in crashes will be linked to the increasing number of cyclists.

Just pulled up in town. Small car park, about 20 spaces. Noticed something not seen before. Three leafs, plus another EV. That makes me smile.

St George's Day falls on the 23rd April and a new campaign is aiming to collect 50 objects that sum up Englishness. But what would you say if Stephen asked you about the objects which define Scottishness?

@JordanEVGuy It looks like you are just another guy who starts crying when someone replies with something you don't happen to agree with and and then starts calling everyone trolls. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

It's very weird how people get worked up about people trying to make the world a cleaner, safer place. Maybe they hate their kids.

85% of all birds currently alive on the planet are in a cage. And when you think of the numbers like that, it's hard to imagine.

@theiaincameron I think you should stick to writing about small patches of snow unless you are a twitter masochist.

Once again on this morning's run I found out that the level of ignorance on rule 170 (H2) of the Highway Code is widespread. Despite the HC changing in 2022, many drivers in the UK remain unaware that they should yield when pedestrians are either waiting to cross or have 1/2

I think delivery apps have fundamentally broken people. This morning, I saw a delivery driver dropping off a Starbucks bag to a house that is approximately 200 feet from a very good local cafe. You could get there in 30 seconds if you walked fast! I just don't understand.

Jordan - The EV Guy@JordanEVGuy·
I’m thinking of replacing my electric car with a petrol or diesel, and had a few questions. 1. I’ve heard you can’t refuel petrol or diesel cars at home overnight like you can with an EV. Does that mean regular trips to a fuel station every week? 2. The salesman mentioned things like engine oil changes, timing belts and gearboxes that need servicing. How often does that all need doing, and how much does it usually cost? 3. I currently spend about £5 to do roughly 250 miles in my EV. Is it true a petrol or diesel is 5-10x more expensive per mile? 4. Someone also told me these cars carry 40–60 litres of highly flammable liquid that’s constantly being exploded a few feet from where you sit. 5. I’ve also been told these cars have thousands of moving parts. Engines, gearboxes, belts, pumps, plugs etc. How often do things go wrong and what sort of maintenance costs are normal? 6. I've heard that the main component of is oil. Is it true that the extraction and refining of oil causes environmental problems, as well as conflicts and major wars which have claimed millions of lives over the past 100 years. That can’t be right, can it? Just trying to understand what I’d be getting myself into before making the switch.

@UpRideCC @upride They were a professional driver as they passed with more than a 1.5m gap.

Bus attempts to overtake a group of cyclists, only to immediately pull into a bus stop and cut them all off. This is supposed to be a professional driver. See where it happened on the @UpRide.cc map upride.cc/incident/words…

@mac_homer @BBCNews It isn't priority. It's an adapted way of queuing that makes the day easier on people who would otherwise struggle.
