« on: 24 September 2013, 12:13:22 pm »
Population -
Scotland 5.295 million (2011)
England - 53.1 million (2011)




I think what the map is doing (and rather well) is making us scots look rather fast!  and goes to show that Blue is fastest!!

Interesting map Farjo.  Seems like The Scottish taffic cops/ speed cameras are making the most of speed violation.  However it is % per postcode and london/ england have a higher population than glasgow/ scotland so it might balance out it if the populations where remotely simlilar, just looks deceptive with the colours on the map.

Did i forget to mention that it may have been wind direction, that can be a crucial factor in these situations...

General / whats a lockup worth
« on: 22 May 2013, 08:51:42 pm »
Now l'm wondering what a lock up/ garage is worth?


Size - now you can just about get a car in, however its rather difficult to actually get out the car.  That said its more lock up than garage but if push comes to shove you can get a car in. 
Location - Scotland, cumbernauld.
no electricity.


Anyone have any ideas? l've to make an offer.

ok sorry we're talking about driver license retests right? So have you been fighting for driver retests for 20 years or just just been backing government  legislation for 20 years?

l'm in no way implying l have a belief in a "strawman" theory (call it what you wish) however i am more than willing to listen to other people's opinion based on experience and belief (as far fetched as the idea and opinion may sound).    In fact what i have been doing is reading way too much Jean Jacques Rousseau.

Cheers for that Grahamm.  Where does your interest in Goverment legislation come from l'm just interested not many people take the time to educate them self in this subject and you seem to somewhat carry a strongly worded corner which seems to be *the* answer or is it just a strongly backed opinion?

which part of having a driving license make it a privilege rather than a right to you Grahamm?

You do not have the right to drive a car, you must past a test to be allowed to do it.

You do not have to pass a test to have the right to freedom of expression, a fair trial, the right to go about your lawful business without let or hindrence etc etc etc.




ok you said above you dont have the right to drive a car - based on the fact you need to pass a test, ok. In turn making it a privilege, great.  HOWEVER what l'm implying is - a driving test was introduced not that long ago so.  so was driving it a privilege  BEFORE the test was introduced or a right?   For example, and a real analogy-

l own a knife.  Its my right to have, own and use this knife.  5 years later, you now need to sit a competency test to gain a license  to own and use a knife.  Is it then now deemed a privilege because you now ned to sit a test?  Even though before they enforced a license it wouldnt have been classed a privilege??

Does this make sense.

Ah so you lost your right to drive when they introduced a drivng test in 1935.  So you lost your right in 1935, i dont get how you can loose what was a right? Grahamm can you explain that.  Cheers

What worries me is the things people do out there to make their or other peoples life harder.  They lack the scope of seeing the bigger picture or the implications of there decisions (of any subject by the looks of things).

sorry rephrase that-


Poor vision has nothing todo with driving competency, a medical would be best suited to this situation.  I certainly dont have a problem getting a medical.  As i said earlier once passed a test i really dont need to prove i can do it again, there is no logic in that.
