Strange then that so many countries make it work, some of them very successfully: Permanent alternate-day travel schemes 3.1.1 Athens 3.1.2 Bogotá 3.1.3 Mexico City 3.1.4 San José 3.1.5 Santiago 3.1.6 São Paulo 3.1.7 Jakarta 3.1.8 Paris 3.1.9 Beijing 3.1.10 Italy 3.1.10.1 Milan 3.1.10.2 Rome...

In this car loving country, no chance! A pity though, every other day usage would be a great gain from this covid situation. Worth it even if the minority rich dodge round it with two cars. In fact it may be possible for ANPR to detect the use of two cars insured to the same person driven...

But the countries using the alternate day schemes have thought of that. There's sometimes also a very steep tax of around the price of the car again for each car someone wants to put on the road, plus limits which can mean refusal. All proven in long usage, so we only have to copy them. .

Unfortunately even the 2035 target will be difficult to meet and still doesn't stop i.c usage, only the purchase of them new. There's a more practical way though. Now we've got used to much less car usage, introduce the alternate day usage that some countries use, controlled initially by...

Such rules should never be made, since they can never fit so have to be bent by good sense. Parters who live together should stay together and bo!!ocks to the silly rules. As I've posted and some eminent figures have agreed, it should have advisory on a voluntary basis, using the...

Make sense for partners who live together to stay together to minimise the infection spread. .

I've come back again to advise you of something you probably won't know from your remote position. A majority of London's bus drivers are BAME, and as you may have noticed from mentions here, their infection rate is very much higher than the indigenous population. .

Again LS6 means nothing to Google Maps and sometimes areas don't either. We ask for the first half of the post code for that reason. I've moved you to Wood Lane, Headingly: Map Link .

I know what I'm seeing, as close as the bus stand 60 metres from me. The bus drivers aren't a reliable source since some are getting a bit hysterical because they are understandably very scared. But they don't have an answer either, it's either accepting the limited things that can be done or...

Fully agreed. Utter rubbish, they have face masks and where possible the front entry is closed and only middle entry used with front seats of lower deck not used to leave the driver in a large space of his own. There is nothing else that can be done in a bus where large numbers are carried in...

You're in Jimo, riding on the A148: Map Link .

You're in anonymous, riding on Boar lane, but Leeds 3 doesn't really work in Google Maps. I need the first half of your post code to get you better placed: Map Link That first half doesn't usually help any bike thieves, too vague, but leave off the final number of the first half to be even...

Sounds almost certainly like the battery has had it, probably one or more cells down. An end of life battery can show full voltage on a meter but as soon as a load is applied the voltage collapses. You can get a new one from Powacycle on this page, but at £358.99, they are expensive for a...

Indeed, vitamin D supplements are very ineffective. I'm always low in old age, despite plenty of time outdoors, so was once prescribed 40,000 units on a specified day each of four weeks. For the last three years I've taken a 1000 unit tablet every morning, but no idea if it corrects the...

Clever, they didn't specify the month. .

No, I was day dreaming when typing that, thinking of another country home in large grounds in Kent. .

No I don't think the classification can be changed minute by minute just to catch someone out. Chequers is very much a place of work in which cabinet, Cobra and diplomatic meetings are often held. So is Downing Street. Both have accommodation, so very much "at work" facilities where the PM is...

My point was that Chequers is an official home of the Prime Minister, 10 Downing Street isn't necessarily as Tony Blair and Gordon Brown showed. 10, Downing Street is the official home of the First Lord of the Treasury, an ancient office, who by convention but not necessarily is also the Prime...

Yes. Some thought flying drones around airports would reduce their flight numbers, but all it took in the end was a tiny virus. .

Nor is 10 Downing Street necessarily, it's an office. Tony Blair chose to live in number 11 Downing street as Prime Minister. .
