rant/

I reckon a swift whack with a heavy pointed metallic object would sort one of those out (pick axe anyone?)..........no doubt don't it's already been tried and tested already.

All I can say about the new devices is that, at 5 inches across, imagine hitting one in the wet on a corner Shocked Neutral not good.

Although, perhaps they are being stratigically placed so as to fill in all the f3cking pot holes on the roads. Surely filling pot holes would also be a great (and cheaper) way to reduce accidents and increase safety? So what with pot holes on the left of the road, these things in the middle.........don't leave much good road for us bikers Shocked Shocked Shocked

Also, why is an English company (take no offence here, you know our 'friendly' rivalry dates back hundreds of years) testing these things up here in Scotland? F@#king keep them I say!!!

Just another waste of money. Spend the money training all the incompetent drivers that are using the roads I say.

I would have thought they would need to fit anti-theft things to them in Glasgow. Laughing
