Car pool Lane between J25 and 27 on the M62?

[Dave Fawthrop]

The Minister of Transport has just suggested that a car pool lane may be
created on the M62 between Junction 25 and J27 between Brighouse and Leeds.
Only cars carrying ?2? or more passengers will be able to use the lanes.
It was not clear from the statement if this would use the existing hard
shoulder or if a new lane would be constructed.

As I avoid the M62 during rush hours it will not affect me.

Another stupid idea from a stupid government, where I work there are
only two people who live near enough to car share and unfortunately they
are on different work patterns.

I suppose the next bright idea they have will be to force everyone to
live 100 yards from their place of work then car use will be eliminated,
this will have the added advantage that the many government
supernumeraries and jobsworths can go about their over paid business
without the plebs getting in the way.

I have to attend Chappel Allerton several times a year, as I don't know
anyone in my area with a tin leg to share with I could always demand to
be collected by ambulance.

Get yourself one of them inflatable women and a little compressor that
plugs into the cigarette lighter on your car.

A couple of yards in my case ;-)
It worked OK 100 years ago.
