remember sussex comes from the land of the greens where speed limiters are seen as gods gift to the world ! and the roads are arranged around the need of pedestrians and cyclists anyway

Cant see how?

Tougher laws on phones
Is that a bad thing?

New fines from councils
Stopping numpties blocking yellow boxes and ignoring no entry signs. Is that a bad thing?

Stopping parking on pavements
Is that a bad thing?

Speed limiters
Is abiding by the law such a bad thing? Is seeing folks driving £100,000 motors having to keep to the speed limit such a bad thing? Personally it will make me smile every time I see one.

Vehicle Excise Duty increase
Will an inflation level increase in car tax really affect us?

Petrol costs
Is a continual freeze on fuel duty a bad thing?

Major Highway Code change
Making car drivers a bit more aware that they need to take a bit more care with other road users. Not sure that's really such a bad thing.
