@grue @Davriellelouna which is great if roads only exist for motorists (in England, they're also there for pedestrians, horse riders, cyclists, and I assume driving (of animals) is still allowed)

@Davriellelouna the 85% rule is still big in England unfortunately. Also, trying to get the Police to agree to enforce reduced speed limits is difficult, and the Government resists attempts by local Councils to take pn responsibility for speed limit enforcement (presumably because they would actually be successful)

@dgerard and then Microsoft increases the subscription fee before the Government discovers that chatbots can't replace so many civil servants

@dwazoup I thought former Prime Minister Boris Johnson was supposed to like Donald Trump (BJ likes cycling so much that he persuaded local councils in the UK to spend money on cycling infrastructure)
