Grant Shapps says the first driverless cars could be on UK roads next year, after successful six-week trial of driverless government.
I see MCC is reopening Chepstow High Street to traffic. I look forward to the massive boost in business the shops will get that the FB keyboard warriors have been promising.
That's sarcasm. It's a terrible idea. Pedestrians should have priority.

"We've pulled out of the last debate because footage of our top five candidates to run the country talking is damaging the Conservative brand."

We’ve known this for years, but every time a plan is announced to get cars out of streets, businesses complain that it’ll damage them. Never been true, never will be true. It’s just laziness & old habits. As if all cities were built with cars in mind…
