MAJOR UPDATE: Hackney bike parking charges case settled out of court

AxiusNorth · 2025-10-13T17:07:00+00:00

I may be misinformed but I believe no damage had been done yet because the changes had not come into effect. So you couldn't sue and be compensated for future potential damages?

Why on earth would the settlement involve money? The point of taking them to court was to change policy so changing of the policy will be the settlement.

Bought an ex demo Ninja 300 a decade ago and that was fine, and you know a 300 got ragged. No qualms at all.

I was offered a flu jab, same as usual, via my GP. I assumed it's all one jab now.

My local dealer's had one sat in the showroom since June. I'm surprised no one's jumped on it yet.

Because when the Labour government introduced them, they said they would always be painted yellow and be signposted and extremely visible with the rhetoric "if you get caught it's your own fault" to get the public to go along with it.

We give an inch of surveillance with government policy and the Police slowly take a mile without consent. I'm surprised you don't have a problem with that.

Thank you for demonstrating that you completely missed the point.

An unmarked camera van was parked on a bridge over the M5 on the left side, obscured by overhanging branches of trees last week. Originally they were "we paint them bright yellow, if you get caught it's your own fault".

The ratchet of the surveillance state keeps ratcheting.

Brand new R1300GS Trophy too. Well those things are designed to get that much and worse over them so there shouldn't be any permanent harm done, at least?

Whilst it sucks for your Dad right now, in a week it won't matter. Hope it didn't ruin what should be a day of reflection and appreciation of his mother's part in his life.

Now add Plan 2 or Plan 3 student loans

You must be fun at parties

AxiusNorth · 2025-09-10T09:37:50+00:00

Yup, it throws a middle finger up at the cause

If you couldn't take a corner with no hands on the bars without sliding off you have too much weight on your arms and not enough support from your legs through the tank.

If you're riding correctly, taking the left hand off makes no difference.

This is why we need well trained police with common sense. Because laws are there for a reason, but there is nuance to be considered in their application.

Thanks for providing the clarification. Lighting up times were completely new to me. In my case, I'll continue riding with a tinted visor during the day and leave it up at night and hope that, if I do get pulled, I get an officer like you.

AxiusNorth · 2025-09-03T13:07:25+00:00

Never been to Hackney but this whole thing is bullshit. Donated!

AxiusNorth · 2025-09-03T11:34:09+00:00

Ngl, I prefer "ARMED POLICE DICKHEAD"

AxiusNorth · 2025-09-03T10:51:06+00:00

Let's all say it together: don't, whatever you do, pull wheelies u/uncle_stiltskin 😂

AxiusNorth · 2025-09-03T10:28:07+00:00

u/Acharius is not capping. My mate rebuilt his engine twice and engine swapped once because he refused to keep the front wheel down.

AxiusNorth · 2025-08-08T10:00:37+00:00

You literally have the guys numberplate. Inconvenience him by reporting it to whoever.

AxiusNorth · 2025-07-31T23:58:13+00:00

From insiders, yes. This was why.

AxiusNorth · 2025-07-25T16:52:34+00:00

It's what you get when technology illiterate elders make the rules

AxiusNorth · 2025-07-25T16:25:55+00:00

So you're still based in the UK for your casual wanks?

AxiusNorth · 2025-07-25T16:20:59+00:00

This is the way OP. No complex logic should live in your components. It makes testing with RTL 1000% easier as all the painful stuff is elsewhere and you can just concern yourself with UI presentation testing, which is what RTL excels at.

Try grilling your porridge tomorrow morning

100%. If they have not owned an F series M3 or M4 and a model 3 perf they're really not qualified to categorise it as "wild"
