Can someone solve a tricky indicator problem please?
I have a motorcycle where the right indicators flash faster than the left! I though at first there was a bulb gone but that's not the case. They are normal bulbs, not LEDs. Any ideas my friends? Thank you for any replies. .

Speed humps cause road deaths
All the time I see people trying to straddle speed humps/pads/cushions. I see the sides of speed humps severely degraded with sharp edges of tarmac revealed.

Driving test routes
I am looking ahead about the driving test routes. I've found a website about it on here: http://www.dsa.gov.uk/AtoZservices_Bannered.asp?Cat=-1&TestType=car&TypeID=17 (click on a place, and they will tell you the exact routes).
