Its an ill thought through law that.

Works perfect fine here in Luxembourg.
 

Where it has been law ever since there have been laws to govern road traffic.

 

There’s occasional annoyance at the increasing speed of ‘modern pedestrians’  (as in, riding e-scooter thingies). Nothing which a little more anticipation cannot accommodate.

I think this amounts to bad driving. The number of parked cars I saw yesterday with the windows left open, when I walked around Gleadless town end  was unbelievable.

We used to call at school mates houses on the way to school, sit and read a different comic in each house while waiting for them,  then call to our favourite sweet shop, look at what the kids are missing these days.

Couldnt wait for Playtime to hit the Tuck shop, a couple of Curly Wurlys kept you going till you got your Rice Pudding and a spoonful of Jam, then stirred till Pink,  if it wern't for mi mam and making me eat  boring ( actually proper)  food I would have lived on what I mentioned,   Yes they were the days.
