came across this news item about the new (revised highway code)

Drivers who smoke break rules of road - Telegraph
one item that caught my eye was that drivers should stop if they are being 'dazzled' by the Sun (the big yellow thing in the sky, not the Murdoch rag) , another is that now a driver can be prosecuted for smoking whilst in charge of a motor vehicle (not in proper control of the vehicle ) .
the article states the 'new' revised highway code is now 135 pages long.
come on folks, is this not going over the top ?

comments .......

hey, someone complained that things were a bit quiet on here, and where is Bullseyebarb we miss you ?????
