Well done that MP! She's calling for action on drivers obscuring their registration plates! Mud and 'flipping' kits are also used. Widespread avoidance of identification. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It never was a good solution for cycling, as the uphill and narrow A259 road into Seaford, is always dangerous. The alternative NCN2 from @sustrans.bsky.social across muddy fields is not practical in winter. bournefreelive.co.uk/exceat-bridg...

I'm currently reading this after hearing about it on @podstreetsahead.bsky.social As a designer it's giving me some insight into rider behaviour insofar as it's people in precarious (self) employment who are racing the clock to earn. We just don't hear about this stuff elsewhere.

Today Transport for the South East are in #Brighton. If you complete the survey, be specific about what you want to see: investment in #ActiveTravel and public transport, not the long list of road schemes. TfSE is composed of councils in the south east and most have not done well on #cycling.
