So what happens when one is hit and killed?

They rely on the public not taking the law into their own hands. They have been lucky so far. YouTube has clips of road rage so there are drivers out there that do indeed lose control.

Na - the most you will get in the form of civil unrest is drivers getting angry for not being able to get to the pub for opening time and the start of the football match!

Insulate Britain have called off their latest M25 protest plan because it’s raining.
From todays press . Have to admire folk that stick to their guns no matter what.

That's a bit of indulgence in pure political spin.

Personally, I would accept their right to non-violet protest. I nearly got delayed on my way to the Heathrow area 2 weeks ago. I didn't really feel that it was a huge deal.

Anyone who travels on major roads such as the M25 should be used to multiple-hour delays for all sorts of reasons and allow for or readily accommodate such delays.

Drivers who get angry at the protestoors and go into a state of rage should not be on the road.

Yeah got to love the hypocritical protesters like the animal rights protesters who say no animals should be slaughtered ... Lying on the roads in their leather shoes and leather belts etc. Couldn't make it up.
