No maybe not, but if everyone was aware how they did it, possibly.

Fill your boots mate, I wish you well, just pointing out that one size fits all does not always fit the situation.

With which, in my own way, I agree..

Can't expect everyone to read and even less to follow something as.. advanced .. as roadcraft.

Can't see contraptions like IAM as an answer either, not with lack of updates if methods, based on technological advancement.

Or in other words- I find these stuck in the past. They exist in order to justify own existence, justify own existence in order to exist.

But something as simple as "observe, and make room"?

Come on..

I was going to make one vicious post today, highlighting precisely the very stagnation that overcame many aspects of every day life and many major organisations..

And in answer to a certain email I received recently- no, I don't think I'm risking "loosing potential supporters" by "shaming". There's no supporters. How can I logically loose any?

It's all one vicious circle of "someone else dealing with it" or "someone else should deal with it", "people are too stupid" and endless repetition of long established facts and complains, either thought up by self, or overheard, or even seen on some public media..

You know what's stupid?

Not doing anything.
Not doing anything, counting on "someone else" to care for you, and then complaining that things are the way they are.

Be it motorways, be it NPs failing to push their weight in EU parliament years ago.. look at the result nowadays.
Not even out yet, and prices go up, wages down..

Still want to leave everything in hands of "others"?

How about starting with something small.
One frighin move of steering wheel.

And then, slowly, regain some control of your own lives..

But why do I bother. .

Yesterday I realised there's no point really.

The picture in my head was of that island in "Eric the Viking". Sinking with all inhabitants singing.


Done. And finished.
