DEPT OF TRANSPORT INITIATIVE - MAY 2006.

I expect everyone has already seen it


DEPT OF TRANSPORT INITIATIVE - MAY 2006.

Information Release.

There is concern over the current driving standards in England, so the
Department of Transport have devised a scheme to identify poor and
dangerous drivers.

This system will allow all road users to recognise the potentially
hazardous and dangerous ones, or those with limited driving skills.

From the middle of May 2006 all those drivers who are found to be a
potential hazard to all other road users will be issued with a white flag,
bearing a red cross.

This flag clearly indicates their inability to drive properly.
These flags must be clipped to a door of the car and be visible to all
other drivers and pedestrians.

Those drivers who have shown particularly poor driving skills will have to
display two flags: one on each side of the car to indicate an even greater lack of skill and
limited driving intelligence.

Please circulate this to as many other motorists as you can, in order that
drivers and pedestrians will be aware of the meaning of these flags.


Thank you for your co-operation.
Department of Transport.
