That would be a brilliant analogy, if it wasn't so far off the mark as to be clearly written by a 12 year old in a remedial class.

In your 'brilliant' analogy there is no risk of harm to bystanders. Coke users endanger only themselves and 'prosies' (I assume you mean prostitutes) don't present a danger to anybody.

In this case, the Audi driver came very close to causing OTHERS harm and, if left to drive like this unchecked, will in all likelihood do so.

mail them if you don't understand the methodology: roadacc.stats@dft.gsi.gov.uk
What matters is how that information is presented when it reaches the public (which is more likely to find itself sprawled on the couch in front of the box, than actively researching STATS19 forms)
And without the consent of the public, the State ain't winning any prizes.

And currently that presentation is a con.

It's not, it's data-driven with the methodologies published in the public domain.

Do you think the DFT just magically change the data for fun (and then publish why and how they've done it) to get caught out?

The public get their information via the media as a rule, not the DFT. That information has been spun so much by the time the media (or politicians) spew it out it can barely stand up straight.

Do you deny that there is a massive propoganda machine at work as regards transport in general (private, public, hybrid, battery, emissions etc)? Speed enforcement is just a part of that, but a prime example of the distorted exaggerations employed to further a cause.

At least I don't smoke.

I'm sure a 12 year old in remedial class would also know that guys doing coke in the bogs can then drive? And that visiting prostitutes regularly would probably put you at quite a risk of diseases.Not the most 'brilliant' condescending reply was it?

Drink driving used to be endemic in rural areas, how else did the pubs stay open? I would guesstimate that the majority of drivers out and about after last orders in the 1970s were over the drink drive limit.

I used to work in a rural pub, this still holds true now. I remember an older chap drinking maybe 4-5 pints over an evening, at the call of last orders "I'll just have a coffee, got to drive back now".

I'm not massively bothered about discussing 'conspiracies' about green issues and similar. Especially when presented with a leading question.

No risk of harm to others? I suggest you do some research into the short and long term effects of using cocaine you complete imbecile.

Top result on google, knock yourself out you ignorant tt.

I find it a bit rich being called a 12 year old by someone who flounced earlier in the thread like a big baby wink

Risk to others. Third parties. Bystanders.

I think I overestimated your reading age.

Your analogy was piss poor. Deal with it.

In which case his "brilliant" analogy would have made reference to the coke users driving.

Are we to assume the cocaine users might also have been airline pilots about the start a long haul leg, putting an number of bystanders at risk by their reckless behaviour (like the Audi driver)? Or brain surgeons about to rectify Brownbottle's congenital brain defect, thus putting an almost certain, future Nobel prize winner at risk??

It was a piss poor analogy. Dreaming up theoretical risks to thirds parties kind of obviates the need for any illegality to be filmed. By your equally "brilliant" reckoning, he could have filmed somebody talking on their mobile phone in the bogs "because people talking on a mobile phone can then drive".

Hey John, good to see you still doing public service in this thread wink

It's tough to coach intelligence though, but best of luck.

Cheers buddy.

I'd post a bit more but I'm currently on hold to a number of UK villages that have reported missing idiots. I am directing them to this thread...
