I'm just going to say no before I even bother looking. E-petitions are the sort of thing to lob on Faceache so people can get all indignant and angry.

In fact, sod it, I'm not even going to click the link.

 

Unconcerned,

27B, Hobbykiller Lane,

Horse-Train Interface-on-Sea,

Chester.

Please forgive me if I don't comply to your order. I couldn't give a fuck. Mine are safe, so that's it for me. If people want to fuck about and break rules regarding vehicle identities and modifications, then so be it. I've reported at least 70 flaky ID motors (Of many types) in the last 10-15 years or so. I know that a good half of them were inspected. About half of those were reunited with the correct owners too..... Oh, and I see them as part of my job, I don't go nosing around.

To be honest I am not concerned either but could not resist signing the petition under the pseudonym Amanda Hugandkiss, 15 Canal Street, Manchester.

 

Job done

no need to be so harsh

 

Its easy to see why new members are put off this site

I've followed this fairly closely, it is a "proposal", it is not statute law, and is never likely to be. It is an attempt to standardise, and possibly prohibite the after market supply, and fitting, of parts, which will not happen, far too many jobs are at stake........oh, and by the way, I resent being told that I "must" sign anything

Isn't this the same proposal that we had a massive long debate of a thread about before coming to the conclusion that it was all a load of nonsense that would never happen?

Or is this a whole new spaz-panic for us all to wet our pants over?

And no-one signed my petition to have Stephen Nolan fired off into deep space.

 

(NASA did say that they didn't have a rocket powerful enough to lift the fat bastard, mind)

I did do a petition about the use of cluster bombs by the UK and they 'apparently' stopped using them and I got an email from the prime minister about it.

Actually, to be fair, that e-petition is actually very well balanced and one of the most reasonable things I've read on this subject, so I signed it. It's not saying OMG U R REELY BAD GUBBERMINT, CANCEL EVERYTHING, just raising some very valid concerns. If it raises the profile of classic vehicle ownership then fair play.

There's something about starting a request with the word "now" that makes me not do whatever it is :wink:

 

Or am I just old and grumpy?

Posted

A polite and well reasoned post, drawing our collective attention to said petition would have been fine. They whole "you must sign, it's for your own good" approach hacked me right off.

Posted

Better still people (i.e the o.p) had a think and added this sort of thing to the 'grumpy' thread from the start.

As well as being poorly written, the Petition is the work of people who lack basic comprehension skills. There is NO proposal along the lines of that described in the Petition. The Petition, like many car clubs, misinterprets the draft Regulation, which in any event is a long way off being enacted. There is NO need to panic. We discussed this last week, and remained calm, unlike the dweebs on most car websites.

Also: giving orders to Autoshiters is like herding cats. Good luck with that!
