Although there are more cars on the roads today, the congestion has been caused by the narrowing of roads by the Councils/Government to try to force motorists off the roads and onto public transport using bus lanes, cycle lanes, bollards, chevrons, bus stops next to bollards, speed humps, the closure of numerous roads and chicanes - which hasn't worked. Now they want the motorist to pay for improvements for privatised public transport and don't kid yourselves, the proposed charges and times payable will only increase - don't let them get away with it.

When I refer to roads I mean the patchwork quilted tarmac that the cars are supposed to damage their suspension on.
