Re: Orihuela Costa N332 Fatal Accident - Car & Rental E-Scooter
I've completely lost count of the number of scooter riders I've seen wearing helmets but not done up making them completely useless. Also frequently seen them hanging equally uselessly on the handlebars.
Great source of donor organs though!

Re: Leaving your car window slightly open when parked could lead to a fine
If there is no actual air movement through the car then leaving a window, or windows, open a crack will do nothing to keep the temperature down.

Let's hope it goes better than the Caixa merger with Banki which in terms of customer care went from exemplary to abysmal in the blink of an eye!

Re: Hellooooooo ............ is anybody there?
Restoration has been patchy, as you would expect.
In the Quesada/Benijofar area apparently it was back around 6-7pm but a little further inland, San Isidro/Albatera/Crevillente etc. which is my area, it was not until the wee hours this morning.

Re: Common sense prevails at last.
A totally correct decision IMO.
I have absolutely no problem with anyone identifying with whatever persuasion takes their fancy, knock yourselves out!
What I do object to is them expecting the vast majority who do not share their ideas to accede to their demands.
You made your choice, live with it.

Re: Renewing your spanish driving licence at 70 and over
EWN are taking rubbish, as usual.
As the quote from DGT says the medical is the same for all ages and the validity of a licence for over 65's MAY be less than the maximum of 5 years if medically indicated.
I'm 75 and got 5 years at renewal just a couple of months ago.
I concur with freddo about ...
