Re: Hit and Run

Cyfr,

I read the story about your dad, and am disgusted at the state of affairs. I hope your dad makes a full recovery, but it may have long term consequences for him....so be prepared to support him a bit more (you probably do that anyway).

The police are useless....and the law is an ass.

HBC could (if they had any common sense - which seems a conflict of minds to HBC) install retracting barriers that fit under the road and are normally raised to prevent illegal entry, they can only be lowered by use of a coded Infra-Red signal. Bus drivers would have one. After the barrier had been lowered and they had passed through the barrier (like a bollard) it would be automatically raised-up and prevent any vehicle from entering the area. We have them over here in geat quantities, and they definitely work.
