See....a bit of CYA going on there I think...'cause they certainly aint trying to reduce idling by reducing roadworks, are they? The times we have to sit in traffic while Mr. Workman has his afternoon coffee or doesn't work a particular day 'cause it's raining are getting worse every year IMHO. Doesn't seems to matter where you go, at some point, yer gonna hit a loooooooong traffic stall...
I know it would never work, but maybe WE the people could start fining them for time sitting in traffic...!!
Sigh.
