    Cornwall gran on warpath after being fined despite broken parking machine

    Agnes believes the older generation is increasingly being excluded from our tech society

    “The retired nurse from Tintagel said that the machine was out of service that day so thought there was nothing she could do about it and went off to enjoy Tom Hanks’ latest flick A Man Called Otto and didn’t think any of it.”

    “That’s when I saw red,” Agnes said. “I wouldn’t know how to install an app. I’m not going to download apps for every car park I go to. How are people supposed to do all that when they’re old? My husband is 85. He has not got apps on his phone. He couldn’t park anywhere on his own now”

    Come off it, you’re only 71.  If hubby can’t manage an app, how does he safely manage 1.5t of car?

    we had a couple of “plucky

    we had a couple of “plucky resident parks car over site of 5G mast” stories a couple of weeks back.

    Sounds like the Bedford one has been held off for now.  

    I’m all for a bit of public participation, but the level of misinformation here is pretty poor.

    It seems to me drivers get longer sentences for things they did afterwards, like covering up their tracks like a snivelling coward for example, than the deed itself.

    Driver caused cyclist

    Driver caused cyclist catastrophic injuries when he sped through red traffic light

    The teenager was crossing the road when Jerzy Jozefiak ploughed into him

     Sian Cutter, prosecuting, said at shortly before 2.30pm a 16-year-old boy on a cycle was crossing the eastbound carriageway at the light-controlled junction when he was hit by a Renault car. The youngster struck the windscreen and roof box of the vehicle before being thrown to the ground and skidding along the road, coming to rest some 20 yards away. 

    Jozefiak’s stopped his car in the nearby bus stop on Fabian Way and got out – his wife then climbed across into the driver’s seat from the passenger seat. The court heard she too then got out of the Renault and told passers-by that she had been driving.

    Cotswolds driver faces

    Cotswolds driver faces ‘utterly shocking’ counter claim from council after pothole damages vehicle

    ‘This strikes me as a blatant attempt at bullying and intimidating the resident into withdrawing his claim’, Cllr Lisa Spivey said

    “The County Council is not just defending a claim brought against it by a resident whose vehicle was damaged when he struck a pothole, but has also accused the resident of causing the damage by driving negligently. This is a baseless claim as the Council has no evidence whatsoever that this is the true.”

    If it goes ahead, the council

    If it goes ahead, the council said it would adopt a low key “soft approach” to ensure that any enforcement action considers the impact on drivers.

    we’re having a crackdown on bank robbers, but we will adopt a “soft approach” to ensure that any enforcement action considers the impact on bank robbers

    In South Lanarkshire, councillors this week showed support for the ban but have not yet committed to implementing it.

    Councillors said levels of car ownership were higher than the amount of parking available in some residential areas.

    Some bank robbers don’t have all the money they would like to, so we probably ought to let them go on robbing banks.
