having worked with DVLA on a project or two I can definitely tell you that the owner is not necessarily the keeper of a vehicle.

That's probably why the DVLA puts the words "This document is not proof of ownership" across the V5C form.

In situations like the above, the govt advises it may be useful to contact DVLA to find out the registered keeper/often the legal owner (as in having legal responsibility for the vehicle). I'm sorry if some of you think this advice is incorrect but there it is.

It seems we are now into 'when is an accident not an accident' territory again, in fact any kind of hair splitting exercise to deflect from the original discussion. 

Malumbu, are you sure your involvement with DVLA was not something to do with the many speeding fines you seem to have accrued when you were a more regular driver of cars? 🤫

Ah thanks for giving me credit, but it predates my involvement with DVLA.  Happy for all compliments, they are so rare on this site  😃  I can retire for the evening happy, and I expect the sun will be shining too.  Bless

I understand this is not the only thread with a love-in

But you don't know that, do you? An awful lot of leaping to wild conclusions and drawing unsustainable inferences there. Those things really upset you, apparently. 🤣

The lights were out at the junction of Lordship Lane and the S Circular at the weekend. When i say 'out', I mean they'd been destroyed. Probably someone rode into them on a push bike. An incredibly big, heavy and fast moving push bike perhaps.

Fortunately cycling I could avoid the congestion, using the shared pavement where appropriate.  There is a flood outside Sainsbury's in Forest Hill, no doubt a caused by a cyclist.  Nothing to do with a private utility company...

Jumping to conclusions again Earl - you don't actually know it was a push bike do you.....;-)

    • TBF, the council has tackled graffiti on Walworth, Old and New Kent Roads - you can see that many businesses there have been cleaned up en masse - but Rye Lane hasn’t. 
    • Hi, I am from the Southwark Day Centre and could collect some apples if I am. It too late... Bettina 
    • Labour's latest Rye Lane Ward newsletter is now saying that demolition in the square will start this summer and that the wider station upgrade is expected to be signed off this year - as explained above, sadly wrong on both counts. It describes the renovation of adjacent buildings on Blenheim Grove as "successful", despite having lain empty for a couple of years, longer than the actual renovation works, before saying "the Council is hopeful [it] will see its first new occupants move in to this year". Cue desperate attempt to get at least one in before end of financial year? As for the other topic, in "November 2023, faced with a huge increase in graffiti across the borough, Labour-run Southwark council took action". Nice turn of phrase eh? Rather, after community pressure regarding years of inaction by said Labour-run council, it's finally started to do a little bit, a little late. Surely there would be more chance of resolving issues if our council could for once be part of an honest, informed discussion?
