Summer means less Traffic and more Travel for the AA

Thu, Jun 06, 2013

June means a change of pace and a different set of priorities for us in the AA. Traffic is never as bad in the Summer months.  Car breakdowns do still happen but they tend to be more scattered through the day and across the country, reflecting travel patterns as many families start to think of summer holidays.

 Naturally enough the volume of travel related enquiries to us starts to peak. We have always provided advice to people going abroad. If you want to know how much petrol will cost you in Spain or what documents you need to pick up a hire car in Florida, the AA answers those questions.

Summer cyclists – a new and colourful hazard on the roads

Thu, May 16, 2013

Working for the AA can get you into hottish water from time to time. There are those who contact me on a fairly regular basis about the behaviour of cyclists. A lot of people have a lot to say about badly behaved cyclists on our roads and a few suggest colourful and rather draconian punishments for them.

There is the other side as well – plenty of cyclists have encountered obnoxious and dangerous car drivers. I have seen mini road rage incidents on both sides, including cars deliberately splashing cyclists through puddles or blasting them with horns. I’ve also seen a spandex-psycho kicking a car wing-mirror in retribution for something or other, which is unforgiveable.

Fatigue – the fourth ‘Big Killer’

Thu, May 09, 2013

Using the roads is the single most dangerous thing that most of us do every day. It is more than a little terrifying when you think about it. Especially for drivers, we control a ballistic missile weighing more than a tonne travelling at anything up to 120 kph.

As we fiddle with the radio, yawn, daydream, we are at every single moment only a heartbeat away from dying or killing someone else.
