Not that cool after all!

VT Editor — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 21:31:29 +0000

You might not believe it but we’ve had one of the driest ends to the year for a while. Although not quite the end of the world one of the implications could be droughts and other unheard of phenomena. A recent report has found a possible direct link to emissions and an increase in temperatures. [...]

Snowstorm brewing – be prepared!

It looks like it’s that time of the year again and normally whatever the Americans do, we tend to follow suit! A huge snowstorm hit the US a couple of weeks ago and unfortunately it’s the East side not West that’s been affected. Although we’re many miles apart it’s normally only a matter of time [...]

Has VT got the X-Factor?

We were recently featured in Issue 274 of Web User magazine under the title Best New Website due to the great service we offer. But the question we have to ask you, our loyal followers, is what do you think? We would therefore be grateful if you would complete a quick poll under our Facebook [...]

Planning to fail

VT Editor — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 20:40:39 +0000

As the UK government, and perhaps many others globally, gear up to boosting the economy there is a danger it could neglect a simple yet incredibly essential requirement – traffic. The development of new business parks will lead to an increase in traffic coming in and out resulting in tailbacks and ultimately congestion at rush [...]

It’s good to talk!

VT Editor — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 11:18:23 +0000

As it’s holiday season we’ll keep this short. So short we’re going to restrict it to the following message. Talking cars will enable you to know about potential traffic pile-ups in the making – or maybe you can just ViewTraffic.info to tell you anyway! Hope you have a great summer! Don’t forget to become a [...]

Bad case of in-congestion!

VT Editor — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 21:43:13 +0000

It was recently announced that there was a direct link between living near congested roads and health issues such as asthma. The problem is so bad in London that the mayor has proposed an awareness campaign to inform drivers on how to “reduce dangerous emissions through smarter driving”. Seems a bit of a coincidence that [...]

Take a chill pill!

VT Editor — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 19:22:05 +0000

Literally take a chill pill, or so the International Energy Agency have informed us (serious message time!). Energy-related carbon emissions are almost at levels not expected until 2020 so it puts into perspective how sensitive the situation really is. Although China and India are major contributors, the developed world is also playing a big part [...]

A Royal Affair

In case you’ve been away (to another planet) these last few weeks, Prince William’s bachelor days are now officially over. The royal wedding has been such a popular event that around 24 million viewers in the UK and 2 billion worldwide are said to have watched the event. We reckon the viewership would have been [...]

Happy New Year!

VT Editor — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 20:57:58 +0000

Well, perhaps if you’re Chinese – or maybe not as that was in February. It’s been such a hectic start to the year that we’ve literally lost track on where we are! First the DOS attack in January then there was the link up last month with two Premier league football teams from England and [...]
