No link, because it's not true. But what if...

What if private cars (and motorbikes etc.) were banned from public UK roads? How do you think your life and the country in general would adapt? What negatives (or even positives) could you forsee?

Country shuts down as public transport goes into meltdown and no-one can get to work.

Millions emigrate as they can't get to shops, take kids to school etc.

I would carry on as normal. As would the rest of the country. I'd love to see them put every tax payer in jail. Daft thread laugh
