Well I suppose it's a little "off the road"...but only because it's a lot on the pavement!

I'm hoping it wasn't the learner behind the wheel of today's #DickOfTheDay award!
Today's lesson? When you decide to floor it on amber, make sure the car you are driving is capable of making it across the line before the #RedLight!

.@northumbriapolI I really appreciate the huge presence on the coast this evening but I did feel that putting others at risk by parking on a busy crossing here wasn't justified. Tackling 3 kids carrying booze doesn't justify emergency parking procedures. #Tynemouth

Today's #DickOfTheDay breaks at least 1 Highway Code rule here...failure to give way is the easy to spot. Is there another standard crossing rule broken too? Does it apply to this design? #Cullercoats #WhitleyBay #Tynemouth

Nigel Farage, "At Michael Barrymore's house they removed all the ashtrays, on the basis that they chuck all the fags in the pool."
Can't imagine the outrage if they found a clip of Zack Polanski saying this.
Imagine there will be silence because it's Nigel Farage.

Today's #DickoftheDay! #Tynemouth Sea Banks. Texting away on a #MobilePhone, totally oblivious to me beside him along a busy seafront with pedestrians crossing between parked cars and the coast path.
But sure — tell us again why cyclists don’t need protected lanes.
Exhibit A.

Worthy winner today.
600m from where a cyclist was killed by a driver a couple of weeks ago - this #DickoftheDay was driving staring down at his #MobilePhone

Today's winner of the #DickOfTheDay award... for this piece of illegal parking on zigzags outside of a school this morning. Note how close to the traffic lights I am by the time I can see the kid on the bike! #NewcastleUponTyne #ParkingLikeATwat #ForestHall #YPLAC

Today's #DickOfTheDay goes to @luxuryloftco for driving while using their mobile phone at speed along a 20mph road with kids heading to school. Feel free to leave them a Facebook Review!!

@NicoleGoodwin92 if I had sound clips of a Tory meeting campaigning to block a cycle lane on Preston Rd N (cyclist killed last night), would the Chronicle be interested pls? The attendees were all residents & Tory councillors. It includes laughing at the idea of hitting cyclists

the meeting took place 2 years ago - the cycle lane would be in place now and that cyclist could still be alive today!

.@sainsburys Your Whitley Bay delivery drivers are in need of retraining. Illegally parked on zigzags, blocking the view of the crossing for oncoming traffic & loads of school kids around. Luckily the blurry reg saved them from a police report and 3 points this time. (Earsdon Rd)

Skilled motorists in #NorthShields these days... #MobilePhone in one hand, vape in the other. A finger is enough for the steering wheel!?
Remind me again why cyclists need protected cycle lanes? #CuntOfTheDay

.@gonortheast do you consider this acceptable driving standards from one of your bus drivers?!
Driver stayed completely in the lane when he passed this cyclist at speed. Footage sent to cyclist to see if they want to submit to the police.

So do @GreggsOfficial top up the meat for their sausage rolls by crushing cyclists!? Passed this closely by a moron driver - only for me to catch up with them 20 seconds later and pass them again!
