| Is it just me? | 31 Jul 2005 10:15 GMT | 24 |
Or does this sound more like one of their April 1st spoofs? Does "Night Vision" sound to anybody else just like a ridiculously crap idea that's far more likely to get people staring at the dash instead of through the windscreen?

| Increased speed limit | 31 Jul 2005 09:44 GMT | 3 |
Yes, it can happen (occasionally). Surrey County Council have just increased the speed limit on a bit of the A287 -see http://tinyurl.com/a2qm6. Approaching Hindhead from the north, it used to be 40 until about 1/4 mile before the A3, went briefly back to 40 as you crossed the A3 ...

| Following on from the post about unmarked cars. | 30 Jul 2005 20:56 GMT | 31 |
If this is so you can spot them on the road, it is really quite simple, especially when approaching them from behind. (stop sniggering at the back). An unmarked car will have two aerials. The car one and the cop radio one. There will be no dealer stickers, at all, anywhere. The ...

Does anyone have experience of using the TrafficMaster system? Is it any good? Comparable to a sat nav system such as Tom Tom? Cheers, M

Around 7:50pm on Wednesay evening I got caught in a long queue of traffic on the A41 approaching the roundabout at J20 of the M25. A couple of police cars squeezed through the grid lock. Oh dear hope no ones been hurt...

Sold car with no record of purchaser!!! Advice please all: (all happens in England...) My Father-in-law was selling his car, advertising it at the side of the road on his drive with a sign in the window of the car. A passing man buys the

Just had a little piece on the local news congratulating a woman for passing her driving test. On her 40th attempt. 3 this year alone. 2000 lessons overall. She said 'it was always just little mistakes'. Does anyone else think the chances of her keeping it all together for long

Chaps, coming home from work last night, exiting the M56 onto the M6 northbound. It is a two lane slip-road, of which I am normally in lane one. Last night I was in lane two as I was over-taking a few slow-moving cars in lane one. So,

Looking at replacing our boring but reliable Escort diesel with a convertible. Having toyed with the idea of something silly (like a Barchetta), I've decided that there has to be at least a measure of practicality to go with it.

I'm looking at learning to drive in West London (living in the Ealing/Acton area). Does anyone know of a driving instructor they would recommend? Am I mad for wanting/needing to learn in London? I've heard mixed reports of BSM and their ilk, and they also seem very

| Traffic Master false positives (and good personalised plate) | 27 Jul 2005 10:19 GMT | 28 |
I was driving anti-clockwise along the northern section of the M25 between the M11 and the M4 last night, and my traffic master box kept telling me that "there are 2 miles of slow moving traffic between junctions X and Y ahead, expect a 10 minutes delay". This happened 3
