@StaffsRCT @NationalHways I'm aware what diesel does 2 tarmac. Default is its fcuked, plane it out and relay.
What trials have been done to determine time frame and other options. I've known a gallon of washing up liquid (lots of little bottles from supermarket) in a timely manner worked.

@StaffsRCT @NationalHways We need much quicker response to large quantities #diesel spilt. Sand / #absorbent #granules, #beamcleaner, washing up liquid. Cost #equipment sat across #network, compare to #time #disruption and relay #costs!
#spillage my experience last consideration.

@StaffsRCT 14 to 15 northbound by looks.

@StaffsRCT I've said many times. There should be a tarrif of points, once number of points in any given scenario is reached. #default #crusher be it old new own, leased, borrowed. #anymake or #age make #penalty hurt it'll make folk think twice. Currently no fcuks given.

@Bikery1966 As my parents taught me, two wrongs do not make a right.

@DVSAEnforcement 22 assorted vehicles but only 3 were immediately allowed to continue as all was in order!
That's quite alarming in my book. 🙈 Good work. 👍

@daveatherton Kettle of boiling water often does the trick or if still at a distance catapult & ball bearings have a similar result. 🤔

@GardaTraffic Immediate penalty for using a phone at the wheel should be watching as its placed on the tarmac and smashed with a club hammer, then add the fine. Folk will soon take notice then!

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@PeterSykes5 @StaffsRCT You'd be surprised how stupid & nieve some members of the public area. Frightening thing is they are also allowed to breed!

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@HantsPolRoads I really, no, really hope it's their own motor and insurance refuses to payout due to DD. #karma

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@CitizenUddin Blame #manufacturers ( #legislation) that think daytime running lights should illuminate dash too. #stupid #unnecessary #dangerous

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@HantsPolRoads Shouldn't give them option to remove at roadside. They know exactly what they are doing. Recover it to pound, inconvenience is worse than any fine + costs + points.

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@StaffsRCT @LichfieldPolice @DerbysPolice Deliberately trying to run someone over? Hopefully that's a charge of attempted murder.👀 🤞

@WilliamNB @tesconews How much road do you want ffs! It's supposedly a pushbike your riding, has it training wheels sticking out or wings 🤔

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@BBCPanorama You had the perfect opportunity to #educate the travelling public and #failed. #call999 is first thing you do for a #livelanebreakdown nobody mentioned #drivers not looking at road ahead. Drivers are biggest cause of these #fatalities. #eyes use them.

@leeroykav @HSBC_UK Came home Tues eve to a letter from Santander. Insufficient funds in c/a to pay £25 dd to Virgin! 🤷‍♂️
Never had a Santander account nor have Virgin card. Confirmed fraud, sorted. If they'd left £30 to pay dd I'd still be unaware! All done online.
#check #experian & others.

@rchebrew @CMPG @StaffsPolice @WMPolice @HighwaysWMIDS You're another network user who has no understanding of how the variable speed limit works. @NationalHways fault for lack of #education of motoring public. #explain #educate #inform #improve #motorways #network

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@Swearb0x @AvonandsomerRob You really thought it was real life, we're going to drive it away ?
Of course it's staged to an extent BUT fact is he opened & started it without the key or damage which was point of doing it. #educational

[Rob Taylor @hydremaduck]

@SteveDavies1966 @cmpg_ciu @HighwaysWMIDS Makes me chuckle at the ignorance of those complaining about a junction being closed. You'd rather it was left open so you could join and sit in a stationary queue of traffic for hours because the "incident" has a fatality. #selfish #inconsiderate
