DonPeffers Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 1 hour ago, DonPeffers said: Seems that ship has sailed if BBC news is correct with report car use dropped 13% at start of first lockdown but only 3% at start of 2nd. Public either fed-up with the rules or seen through them? Correction----Thinking back I may have got the BBC figures a bit out of kilter and it was w/c 16 march 2020 when Hancock said in Parliament that all non-essential travel must now stop that figures for car use dropped 13% (so 1 week before lockdown became official) and comparison is again 7 days pre 05 nov 2nd lockdown (source BBC). Maybe many work from home in your area Ash but plenty car use 'round my way but then we are in Scotland's tier 3 and not a full lockdown like England (terms revised since 1st lockdown).

Blatman Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 2 hours ago, Arm said: If said by the bbc then can and should be discarded. Was massive reduction on first lockdown around here and even this time is really noticeable There was zero rush hour during Lockdown 1. This one has a definite rush hour but it is not a full-on rush hour. I think the main difference this time is schools are open. During half term all us Londoners breathe a sigh of relief as there is a VERY noticeable improvement in rush hour journeys so that one thing alone is doubtless contributing to the anecdotal "lack of compliance" we think we may be seeing.

Howden Insurance - Specialist Vehicle Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 https://www.abi.org.uk/products-and-issues/topics-and-issues/coronavirus-hub/motor-insurance/ If I drive during the lockdown period, will my insurance be invalidated? Your cover will not be affected if you drive during the lockdown period. However, all motorists should follow Government advice and avoid non-essential travel. That's from the Association of British Insurers. As a broker we use 40+ insurers, and we have had no notification to say cover is going to be affected at all.
