If this law goes through, driving in school zones WILL be an illegal behaviour.

Clearly you have little idea of how bad traffic congestion is in Britain and the millions upon millions it costs British industry and the UK economy every year.  There's more to life than cars and the congestion charge has been an unbridled success.  Banning cars from school zones, particularly in urban areas with narrow streets, gets my vote for children's safety alone.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dazza]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 15th 2007 2:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/15/uk-considering-banning-cars-from-school-zones/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/15/uk-considering-banning-cars-from-school-zones/</guid><description><![CDATA[The IEEP isn't a government body, so it's not accurate to say that the UK is considering banning cars in school zones, or that this is an example of the silly restrictions of a nanny state.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gordo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 15th 2007 4:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/15/uk-considering-banning-cars-from-school-zones/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/15/uk-considering-banning-cars-from-school-zones/</guid><description><![CDATA[What does PM Clarkson think about this rule?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Keith]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 15th 2007 6:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/15/uk-considering-banning-cars-from-school-zones/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/08/15/uk-considering-banning-cars-from-school-zones/</guid><description><![CDATA[I personally think its great for them but I would die if this were my school because I live an hour and a half from my school.
