It is not what the public want to hear. They still think the Beecham closures were a mistake (those that have an opinion).
You are probably right but the policy does offer benefits to the majority of passengers (those that use busy routes) these people will appreciate the idea.

No one will vote for a party that promises to cut funding in something percieved as a public service, in my opinion.
Some people will - sensible people. The others want increased spending on transport, increased spending on health, increased spending on education and lower taxes :roll: . What would you suggest saying to people like that?.

I'm also not sure about limiting cars to new drivers, because bad driving can be done in any car.
True but it's more serious in powerful cars, I proposed it to reduce deaths on b roads where I think most occur and also to counter the charge of irresponsibility that raising motorway limits might provoke.

I hope I haven't been too negative.
Yes you have, I'll have to go to bed now with a tub of choc chip ice cream :wink:

As I said I'd like to hear other view about transport.
