Do you think these activists should be carrying out their activities in broad daylight and make a fanfare waists doing it to make their point widely known, or covertly in the dead of night?

While manufacturers are producing cars, people will keep buying them. It is not illegal to own or drive a car...


Maybe they should focus their efforts elsewhere, like keeping the no 12 bus and suggesting new connection routes between outside areas. Increasing the train schedule, reducing public transport costs, because in most cases it's still more cost effective to drive even with the increase in fuel unless you are walking or on a bike, but not everyone is so fortunate to engage in those modes to get to work.


Maybe they will start attacking the solar system next, because the sun eventually swallows the earth.

DKHB you've obviously never seen an American car chase movie where anything that gets flipped over can and will expolode possibly leading to massive loss of limbs and life except for the hero standing directly in its path.


However as the police have already warned the idiots letting car tyres down then it is criminal damage and vigilantism at its finest.


As described earlier, the let down gang don't know who owns or what circumstances a car is for and could jeapodise someone who needs it urgently (for example an emergency Dr called to theater to help after a car chase resulted in a car flipping ....)
