The TV news this morning showed the appalling smog over London and

Doesn't it seem strange though that individuals are actually allowed
to cause such harm to others with their polluting motor vehicles and
why is there no legal redress to this?


http://airtext.infoshows how the pollution is distributed over London
this morning.


Change all max speed limits to minimum speed limits. At a stroke, cars
would spend less time on the roads, and there would be less congestion.


What about bottlenecks where the speedy drivers will end up sitting
stationary while still pumping out their nasty pollution?


Absolutely.

We could clear a lot of bottlenecks by abolishing bus-lanes and re-phasing
traffic lights so as to improve junction capacity.

Others could be ameliorated by instituting a proper road-building and
improvement programme.
