Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

People who slow down to ridiculously slow speeds (20mph in a 60 zone) in the fog - the speed differential makes things much more dangerous. Slow down a bit by all means, but don't be utterly absurd.

Using fog lamps on major roads or in cities with heavy traffic.

As a corollary, people who think the big flashing signs saying, e.g. "*40* WORKFORCE IN ROAD" actually mean "keep shooting along at 80, you'll be fine".

British people using American spellings (e.g. meter, license, anymore).

Those fluorescent yellow race signs saying, "2 KMS" etc, and the fact that I don't see any science teachers taking a stand against them.
