The Null Device

In London's Oxford Street shopping precinct, Westminster City Council is planning setting up a fast pedestrian lane, and fining dawdlers who hold up traffic. Perhaps an idea whose time has come; one thing the Newtonmas shopping brings home is how irritating it is to be stuck behind human walls of slow-moving pedestrians, dawdling along at a slovenly pace, oblivious to the fact that those behind them may actually be wanting to go somewhere, rather than out for a leisurely stroll in the crowd.
