    DVLA Warning

    The DVLA at Swansea is sending out warning letters to drivers as follows:


    "In order to assist other motorists in identifying potentially dangerous
    drivers, it's now compulsory for anyone with a lower than average driving
    ability to display a warning flag


    The flag (comprising of a red cross on a white background) will be attached
    to the top of at least one door of their vehicle.


    For drivers of exceptionally low ability, additional flags are required."

    Think about what the flag is ("comprising of a red cross on a white background") and things that are going on at the moment...
