If only there were some iPhone footage of that.


"And there were also some friends of the riders there - of the man who went
through the ambulance window. They were incensed".

I do not understand why they were "incensed". I did not think that cyclists
had friends anyway.

"The ambulance was really badly damaged".

Fridge freezer insurance will pay for the damage. I wonder if the cyclists
will be prosecuted?

I suppose you think IOM TT riders should be prosecuted for speeding.


Is that held in Lincolnshire too?


Do speed limits only apply to Lincolnshire?


British speed limits or somewhere else's speed limits?

You are the one who thinks the Isle of Man is in Lincolnshire.

This from someone who's chosen form of transport costs the taxpayer £30 Billion a year.

Not for damage to the ambulance.

Remarkably, "The riders came down the hill, they must have been going at
60mph..." according to a retired shopkeeper.

I didn't know Lincoln was in the Alps.

Ah yes, a damaged, unusable ambulance will not have to be paid for in
any way at all.

There will be no costs (waves hand in manner of Jedi master)

Au contraire, it is you who thinks that.

Else you could not have asked whether laws which apply in Lincolnshire
must apply in the Isle of Man.

Assuming you know (perhaps not a safe assumption), what are you talking
about?

Ah... It was a St John's Ambulance.

So the damage doesn't matter as far as you are concerned?

Got it.

Remarkably, "The riders came down the hill, they must have been going at

Apparently, it's in the Isle of Man (according to freda). Or at least,
that person thinks that the same traffic laws apply in both places.
