If you got time can you check out Brick Lane E1 and Brick Lane E2 for me, why? A experiment is taking place at one of those locations, lamp posts have been lagged with a rubber wrapping in order to protect people from walking in to them and harming themselves.

No, heard it on the radio last night and the presenter said this was a waste of time and money.

Hmm, Looks a little like treating the symptoms rather than the cause.

I think the 'Dont Drink and Drive' rule needs to be changed to 'Dont Drink and Walk'

Hey, doesn't take a drunk to do it! Why, I do far more of this sober than anyone else does drunk. Walking into lamp posts, falling on flat ground for no reason, walking into people (and I'm a 6'3" guy)

They should wrap You up in some bubble wrap then- not the lampposts.

Seriously, im in E1 and E2 a lot of times during the week, and not seen one yet.
Gotta stop reading the SUN while driving...
