About road.cc Buyer's Guides
The aim of road.cc buyer’s guides is to give you the most, authoritative, objective and up-to-date buying advice. We continuously update and republish our guides, checking prices, availability and looking for the best deals.
Our guides include links to websites where you can buy the featured products. Like most sites we make a small amount of money if you buy something after clicking on one of those links. We want you to be happy with what you buy, so we only include a product if we think it’s one of the best of its kind.
As far as possible that means recommending equipment that we have actually reviewed, but we also include products that are popular, highly-regarded benchmarks in their categories.
Here’s some more information on how road.cc makes money.
You can also find further guides on our sister sites off.road.cc and ebiketips(link is external).
road.cc buyer’s guides are maintained by the road.cc tech team. Email us with comments, corrections or queries.

Wheel chairs x mobility scooters may be allowed to use cycle lanes. Why not as people walk their dogs on them ?

That's like calling Trump 'a bit daft'. DfT and the police have no intention of any of this being enforced, even if it did make into statute by 2050
gather feedback on introducing penalty points for failure to wear a seat belt
More hilarity, although LancsRoz did fine PM Sunak for not wearing a rear seatbelt during an 'election broadcast'. Below is PO64 AUR- no VED for over 10 years- no MOT either, but there may be a dodge for that. Passenger not wearing seatbelt- observed and reported by me, no response from the police. PCC says 'it's an operational decision of the police'

I resemble that remark, and it's a potting shed, which I only frequent on weekends to write letters of complaint to my MP regarding the flagrant waste of tax payers money, particularly monies frivolously squandered on wholly unusable cycling infrastructure (not that I actually pay tax due to my family trust fund arrangements)!
Good day!

- Disappointed there's not going to be any consideration given to graduated driving licences. I think an age limit on passengers for a period of time for a newly qualified driver is a sensible measure, so they can gain experience without distractions and peer pressure.
- Nonplussed on lowering the alcohol limit, it made no difference when introduced in Scotland. I'm quite sure most drink driving related collisions involve heavy intoxication, not a pint over a leisurely lunch. Better detection and enforcement is what is needed.
- Why is cycling infrastructure left out of the 'Infrastructure' section? Surely we should be considering the transport network as an integrated system, not 'helping councils' to bolt on walking/cycling provision.
- Robust enforcement sounds good, but is tempered by 'tackling the worst' and 'considering impact on justice system', so I expect no change.

Robust enforcement to protect all road users
gather feedback on taking tougher action on those who fail to stop and report collisions, those who choose to drive unlicensed or without insurance, and those with no MOT- ho, ho! You'd need to replace several generations of police officers before any of that is going to change
That's another couple of years gone for a start- Lancashire Constabulary will consider that a victory The only way they could have spun it out for longer woud have been "set up a committee to consider beginning a review process for gathering feedback..
Below is WU13 RYU on New Years Day. It's passed by all police vehicles going to Garstang Police Station through Catterall, except when it's out. It was elsewhere over Christmas. MOT expired 5.9.25, first reported by me 17.10.25. It will stay 'no MOT' until March, or possibly far longer if the owner realises that DVLA and the police couldn't care less whether VED is paid either, so the vehicle may as well go completely bare
introduce a new Roads Policing Innovation Programme
The only such innovation the police are interested in is stopping roads policing altogether
