Have heard it all now

BBC NEWS | Scotland | Edinburgh, East and Fife | 'Pavement rage' plan for shoppers

Quite a good idea though i think, i hate getting caught up by doddlers.

But would you have to do that camp-as-hell speed walking thing?

Not seen that snicker advert before, funny as

Mitchy260

Not seen that ad either, brilliant

It would never work, those who dawdle never seem to be aware of what is happening around them anyway!

They need this in London at busy tube and rail stations during rush hour. Bloody tourists never know where they are going or where to stand, some even have massive great backpacks and stop us, who pay a premium for standing in hot sweaty carriages in trains that never arrive on time, for getting where we're going.

happens here all the time, dawdlers with nothing much to do (usually of a certain age)
clamp the buggers I say

It's people that come out of a shop, or get off a bus, and then stop dead obstructing the entrance that really annoy me

At the top/bottom of escalators.

A woman stopped in front of me this morning at the top of the escalators in Waterloo tube station, she got barged out of the way by the flow of people pouring off the escalator.

Typical Edinburgh Council

There tramlines @ Haymarket made me nearly late for my dinner a few weeks back

what would scooby do

London police have learnt their lesson at Stockwell Tube station, they now shoot people who block pavements, escalators, tube barriers or who generally gawp into space in rush hour

StickyMicky

i walk pretty fast to be honest, and not being a small chap i have took a few people down when they have suddenly stopped in front of me to look at the sky (why do people do this? god is not calling your name?)

cant see the idea working mind.

Those rucksacks are a pet hate of mine too. They take up so much extra room, especially in supermarkets etc. The only good bit is that if you do have someone blocking the way with one you can spin him round as you try to get past

But they're also ready made handles for shifting them out of the way. It's strange how everybody, whether Scandinavian, French, German, Spanish, etc. pulls exactly the same face when you shift them...
