BETTER DRIVING SAVES LIVES

The Complete Antidote to Unreasonable Speed Limit Setting
and Heavy-Handed Roads Policing

Welcome to the home of common sense road safety – a no-nonsense campaign to reject the woefully simplistic mantra, ‘speed kills’, replacing it with ‘better driving saves lives‘.

We abhor all road deaths and injuries with their attendant heartache and misery. But we equally abhor the death of ‘policing by consent’ which has fallen victim to ideologically-motivated attempts to prevent such tragedies, with marginal, if any, benefit.

We thus abhor the creeping authoritariansm that characterises these methods; coercive, impersonal law-enforcement practices which have changed the very nature of our relationship with the police and the State.

No responsible citizen in a free society should have to fear the authorities or suffer stress and intimidation at their behest whilst simply going about their lawful business.

Technocracy – the ‘Trojan Horse of the New World Order’

Technocracy is the ‘Trojan Horse of the New World Order’ – an Order that few people want and nobody ever voted for. What our Campaign is championing is essentially the restoration of the ‘Old World Order’ that existed before the High Priest of Technocracy, Tony Blair, came to power and ‘woke’ ideology began to take hold of our institutions.

Specifically we advocate for the restoration of critical thinking in road safety policy and practice, returning us to the tried-and-tested roads policing methods that existed pre-Blair which were personal, reasonable, fair and effective. And as driving instructors and examiners will applaud, we also want to see enhancments to the driver training and licensing system to make it finally fit for purpose.

Restoration of Democratic Accountability and Transparency

For years now, successive Secretaries of State and Ministers for Transport have been asleep at the wheel. The frequent turnover of postholders, their ill-informed brief and hands-off approach has ceded power and direction for transport policy to an unelected cabal of civil servants, academics and quangos whilst elected politicians having merely, and barely, kept the Transport seat warm.

Our road safety agenda has thereby been captured by authoritarian ‘speed kills’ zealots and diehard eco-warriors. These globalist sympathisers have gained way too much power and influence over road safety policy but have now overplayed their hand.

It is finally being recognised that this era of hands-off government has to end if we are to restore democratic accountability and transparency, because this is what voters now expect.

‘Speed Kills – A Safety Scare That Costs Lives’

An illuminating essay of this title provides background to the miserable situation we now find ourselves in. In it the finger is pointed at speed kills zealot, Richard Brunstrom, and diehard eco-warrior, George Monbiot, for setting the scene for a police / public relations disaster because of their enthusiasm for a zero-tolerance approach to so-called ‘speeders’.

Good people tried to warn that their uncompromising stance would not save lives and that respect for the law and law enforcement would be trashed but these critics were early victims of cancel culture and found themselves dismissed by the establishment.

Instead, drivers exceeding arbitrary speed limits, however marginally, were labelled as “boy racers” and “anti-social bastards”. The influence of pious zealots like Brunstrom and Monbiot on UK traffic policy has normalised the lucrative criminalisation, vilification and gaslighting of drivers on an industrial scale through the implied premise, that “Speed Kills” per se. It doesn’t!

The people that pay the heaviest price for this scare are crash victims and their families who are caught in the middle of an ongoing stand-off between policy makers and drivers in which nobody wins. It is regrettable that certain organisations that purport to represent crash victims have become complicit with the misleading ‘speed kills’ narrative.

Enough Is Enough

We say ‘enough is enough’ of all the lies, deception, heated debates and propaganda; the time has come for a unifying approach which all parties can get behind to bring to an end decades of angry rhetoric and ‘pound-shop policing’ which has set good people against each other and served nobody well.

The Five Reforms For Safer Roads Through Better Driving

Our ‘Five Reforms For Safer Roads Through Better Driving’ will restore sanity and consensus to a situation which is now hopelessly adrift. They will achieve this by:

1. Restoring Reasonable Discretion To Enforcement And Prosecution Decisions
   
2. Putting Thinking Skills At The Heart of Driver Training and Licensing
   
3. Reinstating Road Traffic Patrols Which Blair Sacrificed On The Alter of Technocracy
   
4. Restoring Sensible Speed Limit Setting To Be Carried Out by Engineers, Not Politicans, Using Time-Honoured Principles
   
5. Engaging Communites To Help To Create a National Culture of Safer Driving

These policies are honest and straightforward measures to be implemented as a package. They are driven by rationality and common sense, not woke ideology.

Marketed properly, our ‘Five Reforms’ package should secure the willing co-operation of all but the most hostile drivers upon whom the police will be laser-focussed, leaving everyone else free to go about their lawful business unthreatened or harassed.

Welcoming Roads

A timely initiative called ‘Welcoming Roads’ led by the Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) complements our package of Five Reforms by challenging the largely divisive ‘Vision Zero’ cult which is holding us back because of its ideological disdain for all things motorised in the quest for active travel which we actually support.

Our Mission Is Clear…

To Identify And Engage Future Transport Ministers
Dismayed At The Current Situation And Who Are
Willing To Challenge Groupthink And Propaganda
Espoused By The Road Safety Industrial Complex
With The Courage And Resolve To Take Forward
The Win/Win Policies Of Our Five Reforms
And Resist Globalist Influences

Go St Francis!

In the words of St Francis of Assisi, (not to be confused with the Patron Saint of Motorists, St Frances of Rome)

“Where there is discord, may we bring harmony.
Where there is error, may we bring truth.
Where there is doubt, may we bring faith.
Where there is despair, may we bring hope“

Who could argue against saving more lives through the restoration of common sense and reasonableness to road safety policy, for this is ultimately what our Campaign is about.
