| A TERRIFIED CHILD LOOKS ON |
Why is it we always wait for events to get out of control before we act.
The totally useless, Amber Rudd, needs to do something fast. The solution is so simple that even lawless South American countries have adopted it.
Moped riders, without exception, should be forced to wear hi-viz jackets with their name and registration number on the back. It works in S. America: it will work here.
If you are found not be wearing one the police can stop you and impound your moped.
Come on, Amber, you dimwit....get on with it!
This is such a superbly good idea that no politician will run with it
ReplyDeleteWould Police want the bother of picking up un-liveried moped drivers?
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone in power really care?
The English language is becoming debased - these are NOT 'mopeds' - I rode a moped in the 1970's and it looked nothing like this, they are scooters. Once some lazy young press person with no experience casually calls something by the wrong name, and others copy them, the mistake becomes embedded. This is not the only example. (Sorry - but a particular bête-noir of mine).
ReplyDeletewhether the motorised bike is called a 'moped' or 'scooter' is irrelevant. What is important that NOTHING is being done about this growing method of theft.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the point in making them wear hi viz jackets if the police are not allowed to chase those that refuse to stop and if they remove their helmets which many do then the police have to stop no option. The law is protecting the scooter / moped criminals
