Sorry Darin, not a grass

On some things the UK is progressive, on other issues, like sustainable transport, they see it as antisocial behaviour.

    Thanks. I’ve only been to York once that I can remember but I can see immediately why it failed. Something whizzing along silently in a crowded pedestrian area with narrow pavements so people will be stepping into the road without looking, is fairly obviously going to be a disaster.

      This is partially solved by auto limiting them when they enter a pedestrianised area. Seemed to work well in my local trial.
