Road Traffic Act 2005

Discussion in 'UK Motorcycles' started by Wicked Uncle Nigel, Oct 18, 2005.

  1. Road Traffic Act 2005 - ""An it harm none, do what thou wilt shall be
    the whole of the Law."

    I. All existing regulations shall be repealed.

    II. Fixed speed limits shall be replaced by a new offence of "Driving
    Like A Dick". This shall cover both inappropriate low and high speed.

    IIa. All speed cameras shall be destroyed, to be replaced with TrafPol,
    who will be required to pass "Good Coppering" and "Common Sense" exams.
    Retesting shall be at 6 month intervals.

    III. Passing on either side on motorways will be offically sanctioned.

    IV. A new offence of "rubber-necking" shall be created. Punishment shall
    be by administration of an immediate neck-shot. The body shall be
    displayed at the roadside for 7 (seven) days. It is anticipated that
    this may result in quite large piles of rotting corpses in the
    short-term.

    V. "Lane 2A Blocking" shall be punished by being beaten about the head
    with the remains of the offender's door mirrors.

    VI. The Road Fund Licence shall be abolished, to be replaced with an
    equivalent tax on fuel.

    VIa. Whining transport firms shall have "Whinging Fucker" emblazoned on
    their vehicles, obliterating company logos.

    VII. Bandit 12s shall be available on the NHS.

    VIII. Uninsured drivers shall be rendered down.

    IX. Those driving on permanent full-beam, or failing to turn off their
    fog lights when visibility exceeds 100 metres shall be made to stare
    into a 2000 Watt arc lamp for ten minutes. They will then be required to
    negotiate a maze equipped with punji pits. In the dark.

    X. Little old dears, and those fitted with Trilbies shall surrender
    their licences on demand.



    I think that covers it.

    Nearly...

    Generally good but can we add somewhere:

    Scooterists should be barred from buying fuel and left to rot where they
    stall.

    ?

    <hon member for festering-in-the-marsh rises, scratching his arse>

    I move an amendment to Section VI, to direct that an increase accruing
    from a judiciously applied harmonisation[1] calculation shall be
    employed to construct a minimum 200 miles per annum of nicely sweeping
    Shell-gripped A roads.

    Can I have an amendment for people who are allergic to using a
    handbrake at traffic lights?

    Only for those with manual gearboxes. Otherwise I'd be guilty, and
    that's obviously ridiculous.

    **** orf, just abolish Road tax altogether, especially as the old excuse "if
    you have road tax you have insurance" is no longer relevant as plod had
    access to insurance data base.

  16. I think we need to make driving more expensive - get the riff raff
    onto the buses and trains so there's less congestion for me.

    The riff raff already use the buses and what about the poor cunts that
    live in the sticks?

  18. Well I live in the sticks but I don't care about poor cunts and not
    enough of the riff raff are using the buses yet or the roads would be
    emptier.

    You should include the IOM offence of "furious" driving/riding. I
    think this would cover champ's worries.
