Driving Standards

If thats an X5, it should have a bit of auto breaking as well!

Old news. That mantle has long since passed...to Audi drivers :D
 
Bad habits are easy to pick up. This morning I was driving along with the sat-nav talking to me and the radio on, after a while I had to switch them both off because they were badly affecting my concentration.
 

A bridge on the road from Staines to Thorpe Park gets hit a few times every year by double decker buses. How? Surely the driver of a bus knows its height? There is a great big sign which lights up when an over height vehicle approaches, giving loads of time to stop:

Then once you can see the bridge there is a temporary sign and the bridge has been made very visible:

Yet here's the damage showing on the day the streetview car went past...

This bus was taking a group of school kids to Thorpe Park:

That's quite serious...
 
Yeah, that's really serious. Bad enough when trucks get stuck under but the thought of decapitating your top deck of passengers doesn't bear thinking about :(
Quite how they fuck this up I really don't know, not thinking about their vehicle height but surely it's just part of what you do, I know it is when I'm in a van and I'm looking at car parks - I know each of the work vans and how high they are (1.8m, 2.0m, 2.1m).
 
This cunt cut me up twice on my way to the post office, then literally *parked in the post office gateway* bc he’s too fucking something to use a normal parking space, then - when a bloke with a kid came out and asked him to move bc he was trapped (as, indeed, was everyone else) - parked across two fucking spaces bc, well. That’s his entitled right. Or something.

What a massive knob end.

Is there any other activity where if you do it in such an obviously negligent manner and a death results that you get such a light sentence?

Senior management get away with murder everyday.

Edit: I was obviously being flippant, but plenty of cases of avoidable deaths due to management negligence etc.
 
What to do while eating lunch? Put your feet up, check your phone for messages Etc. Oh, and drive a lorry Lorry catches 4,000 dangerous drivers

Was very sorry to learn of the nasty accident in which people were airlifted to hospital on the London to Brighton veteran car run involving a 1902 Benz and several other cars
on Reigate Hill. Why the hell did the organisers route the run down Reigate Hill. It's long and steep :confused:

Personal number plates are invariably the mark of a twat. Give them a wide berth.

Quite so. Was chatting with Frau Bahn about them the other day, she said she'd buy me one if she could find CUNT1. Explained that any private plate says pretty much exactly that anyway.
