"The anomaly was detected in 154 HADECS cameras deployed on 10 per cent of the strategic road network."
This'll upset fans of 'Smart' Motorway schemes... I'd love to see how designers can blame it's critics on this...

Labour scrapped the M4 relief road after spending ยฃ135.7 million of YOUR money developing the plans.
Now theyโve finally admitted what Reform has been saying all along. Wales needs an M4 relief road.
Million wasted. Years lost. The sheer incompetence is staggering.
Sign the petition today...

Itโs insane hearing that you are not able to fix your headlights or tail lights in some new cars without taking it to the garage. The car knows that headlight you purchased is not coded to your car and will shut it down.
I will NEVER by a new carโฆ hereโs to the old ones
What is a BCM? Expensive, that's what!

Er โฆ what exactly did they expect? LOL.
โช๏ธEU Regulation 2015/758 mandated eCall emergency systems capable of transmitting vehicle location data.
โช๏ธEU Regulation 2019/2144 mandated event data recorders, intelligent speed assistance, driver monitoring and other electronic safety systems. All captured for government and insurance companies.
Norway adopted both EU rules through the EEA.
And now everyoneโs shocked that Chinese connected cars have recorded Norwegian soldiersโ movements?
perhaps, before filling cars with cameras, sensors and data recording technology, governments should remember unless they build the cars and all the components then another country will CONTROL ALL THE DATA? Better still stop spying on your own citizens!
๐ณ๐ด๐จ๐ณ OMG! Norwegian Home Guard soldiers discovered that Chinese-linked rental cars had RECORDED THEM during an Oslo exercise, including their movements and the codes they entered at military gates.
The cars came through Hertz Norway, tied to Chinaโs Geely group via Volvo, and the unit kept using them because alternatives were scarce.
Modern vehicles store video and location data by default.
Pointing that capability at military movements and access codes turns a rental into a security problem.
The footage was deleted later, but itโs unclear whether any data left the cars.

One of multiple concerning reports we've seen that customers were unable to exit the Westgate Centre car park yesterday.
Thames St filter should be switched off in these emergencies to allow people to get home. The reputational damage to Oxford is immense.

I have watched several videos over the last few days and I believe all targets for EV sales must be scrapped and scrapped now. This is pushing the ability to get the "tools to work" out of reach for many and pushing the ability to actually buy a Petrol or Diesel out to 9 months or more because sellers get fined for not selling EV's. I and so so many are actually at the point of just saying thatโs it, maybe you win, call it a day you have wrecked the UK in my opinion @andyburnham by not dropping the ban or scrapping targets for sales. What ever you do I and so many will not buy EV's or hybrids and I have also found it impossible with employment law(angela Rayner installed) again from @UKLabour to take on extra staff so its now only possible to carry on with the same staff. If we donโt get @reformparty_uk and fast thatโs it for so so many, the fight is almost gone

Running cycles through the pavement has been a disastrous policy for pedestrians. Blind people are at the sharp end.

"Cheshire West and Chester Council (CWAC) has confirmed the speed restriction on the A54, Middlewich Road, as it crosses the West Coast Mainline, in Winsford, will come into force on Saturday, 17th October."
It'll be permanent, then. ๐

Despite umpteen reports of Oxfordshire residents recieving PCN fines for passing a traffic filter - despite having a valid permit - OCCs' social media channels conspicously give:
A) no hint that anything's gone wrong.
B) no hint of an apology.
C) no instructions on what to do.
