Previous Issues

WAITING FOR ANSWERS

We are still waiting for word back on the consultations regarding the evasion of motorcycle Vehicle Excise Duty (VED), recommending the adoption of a "sticky licence" system with a tax disc adhered to the number plate as in other European countries.

Off a higher profile still no decision on permitting the wearing of dark visors in day light hours which have a minimum light transmission of 18%.

ROAD HAZARD WARNING CARDS

After being down to the last box we have printed up thousands more of the Road Hazard Warning Cards. If you need some more of the slightly redesigned card give Central Office a ring or get you regional rep to pick some up at the next NC meeting in December. Please remember these should be posted to local authorities NOT to MAG Central Office when poor road surfaces, damage, or other hazards are spotted.

MANHOLE CAMPAIGN

Before we start running this campaign we are still looking for anecdotal evidence of the effects current unsurfaced manhole and service access cover design has on two-wheel vehicle users

Anecdotal evidence can be emailed to manholecovercampaign@blueyonder.co.uk
