Our public transport could and should be improved but that simply wouldn't work for more rural areas. Public transport in the UK has been problematic since the Beeching train cuts.

I think the UK should follow Singapore to introduce Certificate of Entitlement (CoE), to limit the number of cars. So ordinary people cannot afford to buy cars, but the government of Singapore are very clever. They make their public transport very cheap and very reliable. I miss my old days in Singapore.

The fault of the car catching fire lies with them but we will see what they come up with. I am struggling with getting my car on and off the drive without bouncing it down the curb. It doesn't help that one of my neighbours often has a car parked in just the wrong place for me to back off my drive easily at the best of times. They always have an empty space on their drive where they could park the car! We are waiting on the RAC. The fault of the car catching fire lies with them but we will see what they come up with.
