To Spindrift and others who have a problem with Safe Speed and/or a
love affair with speed cameras: Please list here all anti-motorist measures which you oppose (and which are not also anti-cyclist). If you can't come up with any because you're anti-motorist yourself, please confirm this by insulting me, making out (hilariously) that there aren't any anti-motorist measures in the UK, repeating tired discredited simplistic nonsense like "speed kills", or remaining sulkily silent. I anticipate this thread being very revealing, and exposing the motorist-haters for what they really are. It is impossible to overstress just how important this is. It is vital that the lies stop once and for all. People are DYING because of the influence of dogmatists like these on policy. Thanks so much for your help. It means a lot, and I'm really excited about what we can achieve. Together we will make saving lives the top priority of road safety policy (at least those of us who actually want to, i.e. not Jim Harm-vest by his own explicit admission. Terrible isn't it? No wonder he uses X-No-Archive. But fear not, he has been quoted in an archived post, so there will be a permanent record of just what he said.) Bobby |

Any extent to which the UK is "anti motorist" is *hugely* overcompensated for by the degree to which the place is overtly pro-motorist, including amongst policy makers and implementers.

Nice troll. It's already revealing, in that you have chosen to pretend (as so many do) that any link between speed and fatality is "discredited". Paul Smith's hilarious statistical sophistry does not disprove anything, and never did. The simple fact is (and yes, it is both simple and fact) that the faster you go in a given situation, the more chance there is of your crashing and the more danger that crash poses to yourself and others. Some (for which read Smith) have chosen to misinterpret data which reveals, predictably, that cars which have slowed down for a manoeuvre are at more risk than those which are not engaging in that manoeuvre at that place, as somehow proving that driving slower is more dangerous. Obviously every crash is unique and every data point subtly different, but the best figures we have from TRL, based on the largest data set, show that on a given class of road both incidence and severity of crashes increases with speed. But I'm sure this has been said and discounted before, as failing the cultural filter which basically prevents us from constantly challenging our own world-view. But do tell us, which peer-reviewed safety journals have carried SafeSpeed's peerless wisdom, and what was the reaction of the professional community? Maybe this has changed in the couple of years.

Why don't you list what you think are anti-motorist measures so we can address them? They won't let us drive wherever and whenever we like at any speed and in any manner we like in any vehicle we might want to! *******s! -- Peter Clinch Medical Physics IT Officer Tel 44 1382 660111 ext. 33637 Univ. of Dundee, Ninewells Hospital Fax 44 1382 640177 Dundee DD1 9SY Scotland UK net http://www.dundee.ac.uk/~pjclinch/ |
