I'd be all for that being done routinely and significant penalties being

Anyone care to hazard a submission on what class of vehicular traffic
most often ignores one-way working?

It's not the traffic that ignored one-way working, it is the vehicle
operator. In this case a BMW driver.

It's not the traffic that ignored one-way working, it is the vehicle
operator.

Quite so.

And in/on what sort of vehicle does the operator most frequently ignore
one-way working, plus red traffic lights, pedestrian-only status of a
facility, etc?

You really couldn't make it up...

http://www.surreycomet.co.uk/news/ki...t_spooked_him/
It appears that the BMW driver was so shocked that a law abiding
cyclist told him that he was going the wrong way down a one way
street, that he collided with the cyclist before ploughing into
several pedestrians, a brick wall and a London bus.

The comments section of the report says it all.

You really couldn't make it up...

Imagine how shocked MrNugent would be if a law-abiding cyclist told him to abandon his wrong ways and follow the path of virtue. Buses, pedestrians and brick walls would all have to flee!

Poor old Crispin - still cannot understand a simple question.

Here it is again: "Anyone care to hazard a submission on what class of

Come on now - you can do it.

I'd invite you to try again, but have no confidence that you'd be any
less incorrect.
