Bollards: A Hazard or a Necessity on Our Roads?

Hi,

Have any of you motorists noticed the ammount of bollards that have been knocked over, deliberately damaged by hooligans or have just given

up their position in life I live in a Buckinghamshire town where at least 50% of these yellow perils are dead. I do not know who designed these useless plastic articles but it is a fact that they are not fit for purpose. I travel the country quite profussely and I can assure you that it is a national scandal the money being spent on this rubbish item . I have a grandson just learning to drive as I expect many of you do but what are they to make of an island in the middle of a cariageway with two flat bollards and no illumination it would seem that the councils/government have no intention of repairing this infastructor as we have signs that have been awaiting repairs for over three years so I am just ready for action when my member of parliament comes a knocking on my door begging for a vote I will be ony to pleased to tell him its all a load of BOL***S.
