Or trying to suggest that burglars would find a car makes a more
practical getaway vehicle. A policeman wouldn't think about
running after you when you can do 85mph in a 30 limit. Besides,
breaking a speed limit is not really law breaking whereas riding a
bicycle on the pavement is the epitomy of evil.

Yes, but motorists are highly trained and have encyclopaedic
knowledge of the Highway Code.

Though I don't think their attention span gets them as far as rule 170.
The writers should reorder it so that rules 1 to 88 are moved to the end.

To be fair, whether the sequence was red to amber to green or red to red

unnecessary information. It only matters in quiz shows.
