Local radio this morning told us of further action that is being taken to help reduce the lethal toll of motor bike accidents on local roads.
County council vehicles are already stickered to remind drivers to make sure that the cap on their fuel tank is secure. Now the wagons which transport stone from the quarries are also to be targeted.
Campaigners have produced the evidence that diesel, rather than middle age hormones, may be responsible in a significant number of cases where a biker suddenly loses control of his machine.
It would certainly make sense in the case of the (thankfully non-fatal) accident I witnessed last year.
