What are you doing today ??

[D41]

If you're going to go, go. But if a cop was to stop you, some random piece of paper isn't going to sway him too much one way or another.......they've already made their decision right around the time they put the lights on.
But if you go, you have a chance...you don't go, you have none.

Good Luck.

..... If they don't then I have an email I can show to any police office whom stops me to show I have permission from the Police....

So what you going to do if the Police say you cant travel, a trackday is not essential?.

The police enforce the law.
Fwiw I believe you'll find that they don't actually have the power to enforce lockdown, as you will not be breaking any laws.?
They can issue enforcement notices, and their intention is to support the governments recommendation as there is sympathy for what government is trying to achieve. I would therefore expect that any official response they gave to your enquiry may well be discouraging.?

I think you and Blade are probably right, StMarks. The only things I'm aware they can do at the minute is to issue a fine and instruct you to go home. If you don't go home and you get stopped again you get a 2nd fine which is double the price of the first.

It's this bit that troubles me and is why I thought contacting the Police may be a good idea as, hopefully, the officer would see this email from the Police themselves and allow me through. Assuming the email confirms I am able to travel.

I think I'll leave it with the Police.

I've arranged some stop points for comfort breaks and resting spots.

working on new enquiries but really staring out the window and quite honestly slipping back into long term depression , I might go and live in a tent up a mountain somewhere soon

[Cav]

What's up, mate? Give me a message if you want, buddy.. I'll listen!

Then I guess you have to decide between a). CAN you go??
b). SHOULD you go??

[Blade]

Today I will be following my own, above advice and largely pretending Im on holiday in Spain having a great time

The kids are off school, the wife is working from home and finishing at 230pm so I'm not wasting such a great opportunity.

The day will solely involve eating and drinking too much and having a great day with my family in the sunshine

I want to bring this to an end now so I'll just say this...

If young kids should go back to school and are being expected to oversee suitable social distancing, then I should be able to social distance correctly from other adults in an open space.

[Blade]

Enjoy the trackday Cav

Not so fast, hotrod.....kids in school are in a controlled environment. "adults in an open space" by definition, are not.
At this point it just sounds like you've already made a decision, and are just looking to vindicate it.

Yes. But they're grown-up now, unlike their father.

Well at least not as hard as trying to work out a woman's mind. Now that is a challenge, you would have greater success trying to establish what the colour seven tastes like
