1 year for killing one person and injuring 3.
“Whatever the court’s sentence today, I cannot change that, there is nothing that I can say or do that will change that. ”
So why bother with any sentence.2 years ban – what a fucking joke. If the accident was due to type 1 diabetes, then they clearly cannot drive for the rest of their life.

Fine to use. Bit of trial and error to find the best spot. There will always be a bit of knee in the way but nothing that stops a good view. Easy to give a small adjustment as HP says.
I did find my arm in the way on the flats but a quick ‘chris froome elbows out’ allows a view.

Plenty of scope in their wheelsets for differing weight. I picked up some hd ones due to lockdown kgs and they come in at a reasonable 1650g
I did have to wait a bit but that was in part due to brexit and border issues with being NI based.
Endorsed by road.cc so must be ok ! They will take wider tyres so if you are worried about roads then get a 30 or 32 width tyre. I have just got pirellis as suggested by the lbs which are great- good grip and soak up some of the bumpy road.

You’d click when they moved
You’d click when they moved into the ‘developing hazard’ category.
It’s hard to put into words but from earlier today car comes round the bend: potential hazard. Driver takes bend too fast and the off side wheels are just over the middle of the road – now a developing hazard.
Parked cars are a potential hazard and you might pick up something from the wheel angle or off a mirror that a driver is present and it is now a developing hazard.
I did try one of those tests, but I clicked too much but my answers were not given. Mud on the road is an immediate hazard and should also alert you to the possibilty of meeting a farm vehicle or skip. Road narrowing a bit under a bridge is a hazard. None of those featured as answers.

“might as well flag up every
“might as well flag up every single other car as a hazard. “
They are, or rather a potential hazard which gets filtered out rapidly leaving the ones you know by experience are a developing hazard even if you can’t immediately say why.
