I was at @pedalme.bsky.social for a while. I never got to take passengers, but delivering specialist food to multiple restaurants across London was fun.

Drive less to cope with petrol price surge, says AA Motorists should drive less to save fuel as the war in the Middle East sends oil prices surging, the AA has said.

Drive less to save fuel!
Using petrol or diesel to move yourself from a to b is the choice you want to avoid if you can.
Ask your local Councillor for better cycle lanes, cycle routes, speed limits and cycle parking so cycling becomes the better option.

The biggest terrorist in the world did this.

But they don't need to buy new, expensive, huge, gas guzzling vehicles.

Yet many Americans seem to "afford" massive car leasing costs.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

@timleunig.bsky.social I think that you need to take a timeout and have a think about what you're saying.
You have a position of influence, and lots of qualified people are telling you that you're getting things wrong.

So get the Nimbys to stop complaining about building pylons. Where would we be now if none of the National Grid was built in the 60s and 70s?

This is the London Array, one of the world’s largest offshore wind farms.

It generates enough electricity to power 584,000 British homes.

Only clean, renewable energy can deliver true British energy sovereignty and free us from the ruinous influence of the fossil fuel industry.

Indeed, why so many modifier keys?
Especially annoying is the globe key that mainly does one advertised function - the emoji keyboard.

The pavement parking review should at least have included the rights and revenue for councils to tow dangerously parked cars straight away.

Will Marshall the confounder is a good bloke. A 96 hour delay seems reasonable.

I'm glad that DRS has gone - that was always an artificial way to enable some overtaking.
A boost button that can be used almost anywhere, brings it back to a driver's racing decision making.

Driverless taxis set to launch in UK as soon as September Waymo has laid out plans for a robotaxi service in London with a pilot scheme due to begin in April.

I've seen a lot of Wayve cars in North London (AV, but with a standby driver). What's doubly annoying is that the BBC aren't even mentioning this British company in their reporting.

Also Google search didn't find much for it's competitor (Wayve vs Waymo & Waze)

I hate the engineers who gave us these engine idling machines - it should have been possible for them to add a mode which provided ventilation, minimal heating and powered 12V sockets.

Good morning from the country
that russia tried to destroy in three days.
Day 1475 - we’re still here🇺🇦

I've witnessed parents parking on the zebra crossing at school pickup time at this school. Although I haven't been there since the Healthy School Streets was implemented.

So only 6.44 tonnes CO2e for the same mileage?

How about forcing the social networking companies to improve/enforce safety in their products, rather than banning under 16s.

Annoyingly Farming Today this morning was advocating keeping lead in bullets to enable deer culling operations.

Sad. I stayed at the Station Hotel when working on a project many years ago, and had a coffee at Gordon St last summer.

Grafton Road has been such a nice quiet road since the previous changes.
Not just a bollard, the other changes e.g. trees and benches will be great as well.

Including forcing the social networking companies to improve/enforce safety in their products, rather than banning under 16s.

It's good to know that my local Adelaide Road ventilation shaft was partially completed. Although after 5 years of work it would have been nicer for it to have been finished.

We can’t allow Netanyahu and Trump to turn a country of 90+ million people into a second Gaza. But what can we do?

An unexpected benefit of London's cycle lanes...our would-be Dalek overlords are able to take an afternoon stroll with their human minders, unimpeded

Petition: Government to advise monarch to refuse/cancel state visits with hostile powers The Government should advise the Monarch against facilitating a ceremonial head of state visit where a foreign state is engaged in hostile activity - whether economic, diplomatic, military or otherwis...

Time to pull plug on the intended April state visit by King Charles to Trump. No more bootlicking of this deranged would-be dictator!

Average should be banned - Median only.
