A request for your support, this is equally applicable to cars as motorcycles.

Recently one of the members of www.cbr600.org.uk tragically lost his life when returning home from his very first meet, he hit a patch of diesel and went down hitting an oncoming car. Its about time the government did something about diesel spills. We have started a petition which I would encourage you all to sign and post onto any other motoring newsgroups that you are aware of.

How many people must die due to this negligence before the government do something about it, help stop it now add your signature to the petition below.

Thanks

I'm not a motorcycle rider - can I still sign?

Diesel spillage has caught me out in my S2000, and on my push bike.

Signed it.

But for Fcuksake get them to run it through spellcheck before presentation - these things are important.

I'll sign the petition - often see diesel dangerspots after the first rain following dry spells.

Is there any suggested solution to this problem though, other then ceasing the sale of diesel ?
