OUR stories highlighting the drivers who gridlock Glasgow by stopping on yellow box junctions, and the selfish drivers who endanger other road users and pedestrians by using mobile phones drew a huge postbag. Today we publish a selection of your views. Horn-blowing competition

The worst area in the city for misuse of yellow box junctions is at St Vincent Street where it crosses over the M8 motorway.

Drivers coming up St Vincent Street from the Clydeside Expressway and the Kingston Bridge repeatedly block the boxes on the north side of the road, which means that when the lights change, traffic heading into the city centre is unable to move.

Last year my company moved from the city centre to the Skypark. We thought we were getting away from the congestion but our afternoons are frequently interrupted by a horn- blowing competition by cars on the Clydeside Expressway queuing back past the Skypark as drivers attempt to change lanes at the last minute to gain as much advantage as possible, at the inconvenience of others.

WELL done with your story about drivers flouting the law on mobile phones while driving. Perhaps the traffic cops will come out of their tea rooms and do something about the bad drivers and mobile users on our roads.

After looking at your pictures I could hardly believe that there was a taxi driver on a mobile phone with a passenger in the rear of his cab. He is a public service driver. We put our lives in their hands. If I had my way he would lose his taxi licence. PAUL McCLUSKEY Glasgow Tell police of bad drivers

Well done ET for highlighting the idiots who blight our roads. I encounter such drivers every day and am so glad someone has taken notice.

Seeing as there are so few patrol cars on the roads can your photographer pass the registration numbers of the vehicles to the police?

While on the subject of bad driving, you should come along to Kilmorie Drive, Bankhead, and watch fantastic drivers mounting pavements to get past parked cars, while children make their way to school! I CAMPBELL Glasgow No excuse for mobile menace

I commend your article showing the pictures and registration plates of motorists using mobile phones while driving. Can the police take action?

While we're at it, why is it that the drivers of cars costing thousands of pounds cannot put in a hands-free system which costs only a few pounds? IAN MACKIE Via e-mail They must get the message

YOUR photo article with registration numbers is excellent. This should be a regular feature and hopefully will be followed up by Strathclyde's finest.

I am in the unfortunate position that due to my job I have to be contactable 24/7 but since all phone companies provide a voice mailbox it is still not an excuse to use the phone while driving.

I ignore any call while driving, if it is followed by a mailbox notification I park my car and switch off before I deal with it. RON McBRIEN Via e-mail Taxis part of the problem

IF you want to Get Glasgow Moving, have a look at the way taxis cause mayhem in the city. Take the rank that runs down the side of Central Station on Hope Street.

I work on the railway, and travel to Central Station at varying times of the day. Every day, around 1pm, the rank swells to bursting point at the junction of Hope Street and Argyle Street, resulting in taxis queueing on both sides of the road, using the pavement, parking/loading bays and also partially blocking one lane of the road. The result is that it can take 10 to 15 minutes to clear the junction. KEN MACLEOD Via e-mail Patience is a virtue

Congestion in the city centre, which has a modern traffic management system, and the yellow box issue have nothing at all to do with police failing to clamp down on alleged offenders and everything to do with the road users who fail to comply with the prevailing traffic conditions.

By exercising a bit of patience motorists would find their passage through the city centre a great deal easier. ALEX O'BRIEN Bearsden WRITE: Evening Times, 200 Renfield Street, Glasgow G2 3QB.
