A man fed up with Britain’s pothole problem has found a very unusual way to make his point—by treating them like gold mines. Tired of navigating a particularly deep pothole that had repeatedly damaged the tracking of local delivery vans and commuter vehicles, the individual donned a high-visibility jacket, grabbed a traditional sieve, and began staging mock "gold panning" sessions inside the water-filled crater. By pretending to search for gold, the protester is exaggerating

It probably seemed like a clever solution at the time. Too much to fit inside the vehicle? No problem. Just strap it to the roof, tighten everything down, and be on your way. What could possibly go wrong? As it turns out… quite a lot. A commercial driver in Hertfordshire gave local highway patrol officers one of the most clear-cut unsecured load citations of the year.

A worn tread, slow puncture or underinflated tyre can quickly lead to breakdowns, delays or even serious accidents. But that’s starting to change. A new wave of “smart tyre” technology is bringing real-time data, AI and even unexpected innovations (including tech borrowed from other industries) into a component most people never think about.

Fleet operators are being warned not to become complacent about road safety after new figures showed that progress in reducing serious road accidents has stalled. Industry experts say the latest data should act as a wake‑up call for organisations that run vehicles for work, as accident levels are no longer falling at the rate seen in previous years. Figures covering England’s major road network show little change in the number of people killed or seriously injured, while earl

The Government has confirmed a £27 billion investment in England’s road network, setting out plans to maintain, renew and upgrade motorways and major A‑roads over the next five years as part of its third Road Investment Strategy (RIS3). The funding will focus on improving the Strategic Road Network, which includes England’s motorways and key A‑roads managed by National Highways. Ministers say the investment is intended to support economic growth, improve journey reliability a

MPs have launched a major inquiry into the Government’s new Road Safety Strategy, marking the first comprehensive review of national road‑safety policy in more than a decade. The Transport Committee will examine whether the strategy’s proposals — published earlier this month — go far enough to cut the number of people killed or seriously injured on British roads. The Government’s strategy aims to significantly reduce road deaths by strengthening enforcement, improving infrast
