Wish it was, then we could put a car full of them on one of these fecking stupid roads and get them to test it by breaking down on the uphill section, 4 up.Haha your hilarious
Kill two birds with one stone!!!

The problem is the assumptions it makes on behalf of road users, i.e. that they won't hit broken down vehicles abandoned in the slow lane.
We followed one today swerving all over his lane, when we passed him Wifey told me how he was on his phone and not concentrating at all. Obvs.
Imagine if a car broke down in front of him.
The authorities simply have not made allowances for "stupid", i.e., you can't make allowances for them cos you cannot predict at all what they will do. All you can do is get the problem out of their way, which is what hard shoulders are for.
And as it stands 10% of accidents happen on the hard shoulder anyway.
Bearing this in mind it is obvious that money comes before human lives to govts.

Apparently there's a cargo ship full of VW's and Porches on fire in the atlantic. Crew have abandoned ship. Be a bit of salvage in it if you can get there and put the fire out.
All the sixes clickerty click
Glad it all went well and b(r)e(a)st wishes for tomorrow.Bin to that there Lunnen today for the Visas.
Pleased to say all went well and we got asked a lot fewer questions and to provide less "stuff" than i thought we would.
Even Wifey's fingerprints, nearly invisible, passed muster although I did have to lean on her fingers when the scanning was going on!!
So off out for dins soon!
Was funny watching a pair of right nobs, Brits like us (except we ain't nobs) with a house they've owned "in the Alps for 22 years" feckin it up cos they can't read the info. Silly beggars were too tight to get recent photos done. The bloke looked far older and so did she, the guy behind the counter weren't fooled, and they'd made other mistakes and "we have to be off by the 4th of March".
They got to a counter well before us and we left while they were still fecking around at a photo booth.
TBH they were all extremely helpful and cos W was in a wheelchair they even moved us to the head of the last queue.
We "only" had to wait 3/4 of an hour for the main interview and for the other 2 no time at all.
So, tomoz the Breast Clinic
Have a nice evening folks!!!
If it can hold on for just a few more hours then it will get an automatic 'sprinkler' system hitting it - free of charge.
We know your luck. The storm will blow the fire out and the ship will drift up to Scotlandshire and run aground at your boatyardIm on the way

There wossa program on them that gave incident results and prooved they're just as safe as normal motorways. Stats to back it up. Fings like average car is hit ont hard shoulder after 18 minnits. Fink it was 80 somefink times more likely to be hit in hard shoulder than when normal driving.The problem is the assumptions it makes on behalf of road users, i.e. that they won't hit broken down vehicles abandoned in the slow lane.

The test smart motorways under test were different to what was put in. They have less side fings to pull into. They is gonna put more in int future builds.
I agree wiv the theory of them. Burrit would be easier to reduce speed which allows more vikkuls to travel on the same stretch if road. That was the design of smart motorways... to carry more traffic.
Mornin all.
