I don't have a problem with updated laws. I do wonder about any bias on the system.
And this wont make our roads safer. Dangerous driving laws don't stop 300-400 pedestrians a year being killed by drivers. It's a distraction

Henry Riley Iain Duncan Smith MP LBC So Iain Duncan Smith is suddenly worried about the law?

Henry Riley LBC 918 pedestrians killed by vehicles in the 24m to June 2023.

In Dec 2023 IDS led a debate opposing 20mph zones and speed humps and urging govt intervention against local authorities.

The speeder's friend (if in a car).

Henry Riley Iain Duncan Smith MP LBC Hey Henry! Do Surbiton next.

Where speeding DRIVERS were booked EVERY 47 SECONDS.

Remember Henry, in real life, there are far far more speeding drivers. Who present much more danger to the public.

Meanwhile 300+ pedestrians are killed a year by drivers.
This is just distraction and culture war bollocks reather than tackle the real danger.

You can mandate speed limits for cycling at the same time as you mandate geo aware speed limiters for ALL motor vehicles. Not just the new ones.

This is just culture war bollocks that will not make roads less dangerous.

Today, the LibDem's Tim Farron put forward New Clause 91 that would create a new criminal offence for 'failing to meet pollution performance commitment levels'

Mark Harper So you destroy budget for protecting kids cycling to school, propose removing council enforcement powers fir drivers breaking the law & now this waste of time.
More ppl killed by cows than by cyclists.
I wonder how many dead kids your ToryUkip actions have already resulted in?

Are you looking forward to scrutinising the report/data at HATOC for the LTN trial before making any hasty decision?

What about reinstating ACTIVE TRAVEL to your cllr’s portfolio that you removed?

Appears to be a random video being used out if it’s correct context in order to try prove some weird/random point 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🙄

Hi Exeter Labour Party controlled Exeter City Council 👋

Anyone able to confirm who ok’d/approved the decision to remove ACTIVE TRAVEL from portfolio holder Cllr Cllr Duncan Wood ‘s priorities just in time for HATOC? 🤷🏼‍♀️🙄

'...Instead environmental & infrastructure changes are required to make walking, cycling & wheeling feel safer & more pleasant. These should include road space reallocation. Future research should focus on how to develop public & political support for such interventions.'

So start of a new municipal year, with Annual Council. With new & returning councillors & appointments of Lord Mayor & Depty.

It seems to have become a custom too for Labour to stop opposition parties from Charing key committees

So another year of marking thier own homework

It is good to see this thoughtful response.

Consultation is about trialling, learning & improving.

We are not sure that the binary keep or remove narrative is helpful or reflective of the actual issues & benefits being identified.

Congrats Cllr Phil Bialyk Cllr Duncan Wood Cllr Laura Wright Lynn Wetenhall as new Exeter City Council members of Exeter HATOC

You have big choices ahead on buses, safety & active travel.

Exeter HATOC has made progress to start to move from 60 years of traffic jams to streets for people More please 🙏

If children can't walk, cycle or scoot safely to school and around their neighbourhood...if they are driven everywhere...who will be the walkers and cyclists of the future?

The popular Exeter Heritage Harbour Festival will be returning to Exeter Quayside in June to celebrate the city’s maritime history and Heritage Harbour status.

Today I’m sad that we appear to live in a culture that favours the dominance of car culture over actual quality of life; a culture that can’t envision a better future; that can’t absorb and process evidence. That is all.
