''A learner driver who failed the theory test 59 times before passing has been praised for their "amazing" commitment' Sorry, but no – if you can’t pass a basic & mostly common sense multiple choice test in, say, 5 attempts then no licence for you bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67610152

Maybe it’s time we made all season tyres mandatory..?
Replying to @MrJRan

Mandatory all season tyres on all new cars and at every MOT would help stupid drivers to be less crashy
Never underestimate the stupidly of drivers in the snow.

4 inches of snow now is going to be interesting 😬☃️
Love driving in -8°C on frozen roads with knob heads in shite cars, with one working headlight and almost certainly shite tyres still tailgating you just the same as on any other day

The most exciting thing here is this button being within easy reach
I plotted this route and Cybertruck wants 100-120 miles between stops and 25-40 minutes of charging. Trip planner knows it’s slowish.

Officers saw this vehicle with cables coming out of the window joining M25. They discovered the vehicle was being powered by two batteries sitting in the passenger footwell. Body panelling was also found to be falling off. Vehicle prohibited and driver will be charged... Charged

I’m not aware of any additions to the motorway charging network for my map… are you? 31 days to go to get the remaining 83 sites done google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer…
⚡️More info added to the map ⚡️ • Current charger provision 🔌 • MSA operator 🏢 • Motorway 🛣️   Some insights… 5 motorway services have ZERO public CCS charging   Another 19 only have a single public CCS charger of between 40-60 kW 1/2
