    Ok, I know it’s serious; but on the lighter side of all this...

    Is driving your Ferrari on open roads with little traffic due to the latest considered “essential travel”? :)

    I can't see how anyone would be infected by doing this so I would see it as essential to keeping your sanity :)

    Just be careful when refuelling - and try to stand two metres away from the policeman who busts you for speeding !

    Just start hacking/coughing when he comes to your window to ask for license/insurance. Better yet, sneeze in your hand then use that hand to produce the aforementioned documents!

    The law will soon be too busy dealing with riots at the supermarket.
    IMO this is all a load of tosh.

    I certainly fully intend to get out and about in mine this weekend if the weather's still nice.

    I live on my own and would be driving on my own, can't really see the difference or the issue to be honest.

    No different to filling up the daily driver, I've had to do that a few times already as although I've a fairly short commute now Rangies chew through a fair amount of the black stuff

    No indeed. What I meant was protect you hands as the handle of a petrol pump is a prime transmission point. Take a plastic bag with you.
