We try to restrict comments as little as possible, but it is required that you do not post anything which is:
- illegal
- defamatory
- abusive
- advertising
- assigning blame in collisions before court cases
- trolling
It is also required that you do:
- stay on topic
- play the ball, not the man or woman
- report rather than respond to abuse (use the contact page)
This is also not a place for you to rant about cyclists.
Being off-topic usually includes technical or editorial issues or minor errors — please contact us about these directly.
If you cannot follow these rules it is likely that your comments will not be approved, edited or will be deleted, and/or your ability to comment may be restricted.
