[QUOTE="Crash Hamster, post: 1116601, member: 84693"] Responding to your edit here, too, though goodness knows why. It's not complex, the more you reduce speed, the fewer speed-related deaths you get. It's not a case of banning the vehicles, it's making them so slow that they're useless for their original function. Now try applying this to rugby. You don't ban the game, just head contact, then shoulder contact, then anything above the waist, but players will still get whiplash injuries and lo and behold, you have touch rugby. Thin end of the wedge, innit? I'm sure I'll be quoting myself every time the game moves in this direction. Prove? Me wrong, of course, in the same way I did to you re BRAKE. You shouldn't be so grumpy, your side are winning. [/QUOTE]
