  In our local paper is a report of a man who has been fined for overtaking on double white lines. In his written defence, apparently, he said the road was safe for overtaking and the car in front was being driven by an elderly female driver who braked a lot.

  First posting here. I have a G reg Fiesta on which the brakes have just failed . It is repairable but it is not economic to have a garage do it and no one here is mechanically minded. It does have an MOT but at the moment it is definitely not roadworthy . Is it legal for me to sell

  I have a 2005 ford mondeo TDCI, when driving at high speed the wheel shakes ever so slightly and when braking from high speed the wheel shakes a little more noticeably. Now, is this due to dodgy disks or tracking out of alignment?

  There is an entry in todays "recently answered questions" concerning a failed MOT on a 5year old Mini 29000miles needing a total rear brake replacement according to the dealership.  My question is would the calipers really warp as they are substantial metal parts?
