    Who drives down Oxford Street? I think I’ve done it once in 20 years. Other roads are available.

      I’ll actively avoid it and take other routes. When I did removals in London, we’d go out of our way to avoid similar roads, they’re always extra hassle. It makes loads of sense to prioritise pedestrians

      Whenever I have walked down there it’s mostly buses and taxis with a few cars peppered in.

      Been ages since I’ve walked along there but I remember far more people than cars and at times the street is completely empty.

        I know, but I’m a rebel! I don’t just break the rules, I make the rules! Which I then break, which is somewhat counterproductive but that’s rebels for you.

        ~Also, I suspect it was at least 15 years ago when I last drove down it!~
