Aren't all these claims just variations of "drivers will be frustrated & vent their anger at somebody"?<br /><br />I think we can do much better.

They are forcing their socialist nanny state on us, and the sheeple in the clowncil have already been brainwashed.<br /><br />c) Think of the kids. (I can't work out what this argument is about, but it is a strong one. Or do YOU want to harm the kids?).<br /><br />d) If this nonsense isn't stopped, I threaten never to drive again and walk instead.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Stephan Matthiesenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13548797388982977819noreply@blogger.com
