Good news

Thanks for the responses to my query guys. What a bonkers world we live in! I naturally assumed that standard face masks as worn on public transport would have sufficed. Presumably this is the position anyone could find themselves in regardless of what they`re riding/driving, assuming they have a legitimate reason for being out and about.....

.....this`ll explain why i`ve noticed so many people wandering around on the motorway lately, they must be waiting for a bus !

It's a very strange world indeed .
I saw a advert for a breakdown company the other day that says they take your car and arrange a taxi for you .
I think it's to reduce the number if staff the breakdown companies have taking time off to self isolate ECT.
Not sure why it's then ok to use a taxi as unless screened off the taxi driver has the same risk.
On busses I saw a double decker the other day with a message in the front saying " this bus is full" only 6 people on it.
Strange times indeed.

Most of the busses I see have "not is service" on the front, I've tried google and Bing, still cant find where it is.

Speaking as an ex bus driver, it's the best destination you can be assigned.

Caution!!!!!! A friend in the insurance industry has advised me to check with my provider as to whether I am insured against an accident or any other claims if I have an accident on a non-essential journey as some companies may be looking at this as a get out clause. As my car insurance is due at the end of the month and the 14's in January I will be asking them directly about this. As a precautionary note CHECK with your provider.
If in doubt
Save your NCB's
Don't GO OUT.

Insurers do not have magic powers to invalidate insurance on a whim

Insurance companies do love a look hole to get out of paying out or at least minimising any pay outs .

@numbskull  you are right. I read the white dalton link and spoke to my insurance provider as well and they agree my insurance is valid if I ride during lockdown. It seems I'm the victim of a wind-up by my so called friend,so all is good now
