this was all done "to reduce fatalities on Derbyshires roads".
Havnt these people got lives?
He even told me they were out targeting bikes.

ruined my day!
What a pain in the ****! No doubt the casualties will be dramatically down this year - and they will take credit for it... Nothing to do with the lack of sun + consequent riding though oh no
