My dad worked for a sewage company and kept telling management that one day someone will have an accident on one of the tankers that have a ladder attached. No one did anything despite his insistence time and time again. One day he himself had to go up the tanker and he fell off shattering his arm and part of his back. He got paid a settlement and retired early (not because of that amount of money but because of his health). He still lives with the complications of those injuries. People, like him and Chris, who know their industry well, need to be listened to. The BBC can turn their heads because ‘hey, it doesn’t matter. We’re making a fun show that people watch!’ But when you’re blinded by money and pushing through, things like this happen.

[@travisazzopardi8024]

I agree. But I also think all 3 wheelers are dangerous af at speed. Remember when they had a single front wheel and 2 rear wheels? They stopped making them for a good reason. Too many people who were unfamiliar with the physics of them were getting badly injured or killed. That being said, they're relatively safe at legal speeds. I'm not against them but I still think they're dangerous at speed. Then again the same thing could be said about motorcycles if people don't know about hanging off. Knowledge is power and safety.

The Robin reliant configuration didn't seem too bad, because the engine was so far back in the cab.

Sorry but that's a poor degree of awareness as to why, it's almost certainly a part of the puzzle, but it's a very minor one at best. One of the most significant aspects of it, imho, and it's something that both people who are outside of the UK are not often aware of and the people who are inside the UK oftentimes forget about; is that the BBC is fundamentally an aspect of the Government's "communications" (which absolutely, positively isn't associated with propaganda, not at all nononononono) and isn't at all utilised to allow members of foreign organisations (be they governments, assets or someone who they're trying to recruit) to both meet and *meet* their favourite popstar, band, sportsman/athlete or *ahem* member of the studio audience (and I can say that was the case with certainty for "Top of the Pops" during the years that a certain infamous DJ was the primary host as there's been numerous personal accounts by both people who were in the audience, various co-hosts and former members of government stating as much as matters of record) in order to have (I don't wish to accuse everybody who took advantage of the offer of wrong doing, but sufficient amounts of them did, in addition to some of the guesting performers/musicians) the program developed a reputation for it amongst the public, which is to say the young people who were making up the studio audience at the time. I would wager that it's the way (having heard about it via friends or fans within the punk scene at the time. I am by no means levelling any sort of accusation towards Johnny, who is by my reckoning a very moral person and has no such predilections) by which Johnny Rotten was able to allude towards it in his, now infamous, radio interview.
