That would not be wise, this is what the law says about positioning: "fitted with a plate securely fixed in a conspicuous and readily accessible position showing—" .

They aren't spoiling ALL the fun of high speeds on the roads, just maintaining their monopoly of it. .

It is disturbing and part of a continuing trend to assume guilt in certain types of cases, started by Keir Starmer during his five years tenure as DPP from 2008 to 2013. But at the moment it is only a consultation and coud be just a threat to try and achieve a desired result without further...

Yes of course it's nice for all these low mileage users to only have the effort of plugging in their new Renault 5 once a month or two, but that's a costly benefit compared to buying a few years old EV. Like my 8 year old that still allows me 150 miles between charges in Summer, 100 miles in...

Not really, because we don't make second hand cars, only new ones with that latest technology. The second hand old tech ones become the affordable cheap ones to satisfy our huge market for short range local transport. Once again I repeat that our annual average UK mileage is only 7300 and...

Why address this question to me? My post was solely about Starmer's political failings, not expressing any opinion on the fishing issues Starmer raised. Those are another subject. As ever, you see problems where none exist. .

You really don't understand this world, do you? It's just a tax on energy usage, just like those we pay on petrol, diesel and electricity, government income has to come from somewhere. Solar panel energy in this instance is just the latest. One day it will be the temperature differential...

Nowhere near fast enough, the political damage done over nearly ten months since 29/7/24 by that WFA allowance removal has been immense. It will always haunt him as long as he is in politics. If he fully, unconditionally restores it, the damage will be lessened, so we'll soon know if he does...

Trouble is that Starmer has no political nous. He walked into a self created trap with the simple truth of now allowing EU fishermen into UK waters, only balanced by a complex-to-explain gain in our fish sales into the EU. Our voters don't understand complex, they only see the obvious, even...

It doesn't have to. Legal EAPCs are bicycles in law and bicycles have no speed limits in national law. EAPCs only have the assist limit, but there is no way the police can detect if the motor on one is actually assisting or simply consuming some power uselessly while the rider pedals it...

No, traditional brick structure, but in a steep sided valley with signal masking and a every attempt at repeaters failing due to bad surveying/ poor positioning. .

I don't use them either. The internet and web in their computer based origins were and still are the best. All the "conveniences" added since are suspect. It's why I dont want anything to do with smartphones, but fortunately their hopelessly inadequate coverage doesn't allow me to use...

In the Grenfell fire one white goods item burnt out a whole tower block and killed 72. .

I just hard wire! .

Apologies, I hadn't considered this particular serious deficit of Smartphones. Not having a mobile signal where I live in a London borough and knowing how much the government lie about their wholly inadequate coverage, I'm very much an enemy of Smartphones and the damage they are doing to...

Of course they will, and much, much longer. EV's are potentially much longer lived than any IC vehicles, so long as their batteries get replaced from time to time. Usually around 5 to 8 years with current batteries, but that is getting better all the time. In the late 1960s both Harrods and...

It isn't even a native tree, being something of a pest species: "Sycamore is naturalised in Great Britain, with a poor reputation amongst conservationists due to the perception that it supports only low levels of biodiversity, that it is not native and that it is invasive in ancient...

Although I agree, that isn't the whole story. The USA with their new three classes law for pedelecs has fallen into line with the rest of the world's adoption of EU law, but with the difference of stating 750 watts rather than the EU similar permission disguised as "Continuous Rated Maximum...

I don't think you can do it yourself, but use the link below to have a word with Staff Member and Administrator HelenJ: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/conversations/add?to=HelenJ .

That's sophisticated! This is the sort of open fronted steam wagons we often had on the roads during the war, ancient machines revived to save on petrol, which the Army and RAF needed most:
