Top of the list is the Toyota Prius (popular as a taxi), after that it’s mostly the sort of cars driven by teenagers, quite a few BMWs too (possibly company cars with high annual mileage?).

There are rules for car
There are rules for car adverts, the gist of which is:
Advertisements should not contribute to a culture of dangerous, irresponsible or inconsiderate driving or motorcycling, especially among young drivers.ASA seems to be a bit toothless though, if you break the rules you’re just told you can’t run the advert again. E.g. this Audi R8 ad, and this Ford Mustang ad, and this Fiat ad.

Apparently they owned a lot of fast vehicles, and one time they got caught speeding at 120 mph in their subaru impreza, but luckily, they knew a policeman who got them off in court, even though they got given a total of 20 points including that offence. That doesnt happen! Police officers can’t get people off, if its down to the court, its up to the judges what happens to the defendant, the police officers testimony is only to help the judge grasp the situation.Perhaps your boss’s policeman friend belongs to the same Masonic Lodge as the judge 😉

I just don’t remember this being a thing until recently, now it seems a daily occurrence.Might be happening more frequently now, but this is from 2001. The transporter hit a railway bridge just outside my house. Not sure if it made the local paper at the time.

At the moment with bikes it’s
At the moment with bikes it’s probably largely a question of what you can get your hands on. I think any of the 3 you’ve looked at would do the job. Decathlon do a Tilt 500 folding eBike that’s also worth a look, although availability might be an issue.

You adjust it with a hex wrench, so if you were looking for screws you might have missed them.
