Rubber neckers to be put in stocks with a plentiful supply of throwing material for passers by. That will give them practise at looking round to see where the next missile is coming from.
Some people just love their job...So there I was the other morning heading to work (on a dual carriage-way). I check my mirror and all's grand so I over-take the car in front of me. There was a car in the fast lane waay back who proceeded to speed up until he was inches behind me. Listening to Lyric FM, I wasn't too bothered. When I moved back into the driving lane, Gobbo speeds up again like a madman. Further up the road I see Gobbo pulling into the same building where I am working. All this aggression and speed....to get to work?
I'd make rubber neckers do the sameanyone using the phrase "rubber neckers" to be made to scrub the motorway with their toothbrush.

I'd introduce water chargesI would make the provision of air and water at garages free as I have noticed recently that some garages in Cork have started charging a euro for this now.
That would involve a lot of people working extra hours and days!4 day week to be the norm.
If I'm driving and see flashing lights / fire engines / crashed cars / garda car or any combination of these ahead on the road, I will quite rightly slow down. It is the safe and prudent thing to do.
There is no way of knowing from a distance if there is debris on the road, where or how the road might be blocked, or even if there are passengers in shock wandering around (there are documented cases of this).
It really irritates me when that pejorative phrase is used for drivers.
I remember it was said to get to 39 hours would wreck us , and the row over most people getting Saturday off .That would involve a lot of people working extra hours and days!
Are you suggesting what the French tried; enforced short weeks in order to create more jobs?I remember it was said to get to 39 hours would wreck us , and the row over most people getting Saturday off .
We better get used to less time working to give most people some work !
There is already a massive shortage of skilled labour, particularly in manufacturing. The low skilled jobs (a la Trump) just don't exist any more.Purple ,
Definitely not enforcement .
Suggesting that as automation has moved on ,we need to reassess working time .
If that means shorter weeks creating more jobs V too many people having no jobs , then would that be good/bad ?
Just musing !
