Donald Trump is a habitually vexatious litigant. The BBC may be in a position to win millions in damages via the UK courts, before a case gets thrown out of the Florida courts.

And if your vehicle has a gross weigh over 2500kg, you must display parking lights at ALL times when parked on a public highway (irrespective of speed limit/street lighting) at night (after lighting up time). For this one doesn’t matter if you’re in a marked bay.
Avoid this common nighttime parking mistake | MoneySuperMarket
With the clocks going back on Sunday 26th October and darker evenings setting in, drivers should be aware of a little-known Highway Code rule that could land them with a fine of up to £2,500.
