if you have kids on board, slow the **** down and drive with just the smallest amount of responsibility!

You don't need to if your car is big enough :rolleyes: .

:mad: If I had a pound for every time I have the life frightened out of me by a biker racing through a gap that I was about to go into, Id be a wealthy man!

I appreciate that bikers have their rights on the road but many do have a habit of squeezing through dangerous gaps at dangerous speeds. Yes, they may have got a bike to traverse traffic more rapidly, but when they are missing wind mirrors by half an inch, overtaking on the inside, cutting between gaps in cars... well that just infuriates car drivers and that is why car drivers often give bikers very little sympathy.

I passed an accident on a 70 mph stretch of the A1 on Sunday night involving a motorbike. A car must have tried to cross the carriageway in front of it. It was scary seeing the motorbike on the ground - the biker can't have come off too well in that one.

Out and about today and thought that most folk would be using fog lights.
Cant believe how many people were driving without any lights never mind fog lights.
Had to negeotiate Sandy Knowes - Was like wacky races- oops showing my age.
Lights are not just to see with- they are needed to be seen. :mad:

Noticed this myself today going from Bangor to Omagh, even some "professional" drivers were driving with only side lights or none at all!

I prefer the female smoker.... you know the one.... fag in one hand, digging in the hand bag for a lighter, all the while swerving from side to side on the road!

Don't forget all the windows up and kids choking in the back seat?

And bikers terrify me, I hate seeing them on the road, driving like lunatics.

Apparently driving with foglights on when it's not foggy can get you 3 points now..that'll show 'em

fog lights are a pet hate of mine.

+ hogging the over taking lane on the motorway (when no one else is in the left lane)

Was behind some muppet today, followed him all the way to the motor way, just 2 miles into the journey we hit a small patch of fog, on came the fog lights, then 1 minute later we were out of the fog, on stayed the fog lights, they are blinding if you are behind them.

So i flashed him and even put my front fogs on and off so he might have got the picture of "oh he is reminding my rear fogs are on, i must turn them off" NOOOOOOOOOOOO he just drove on until i was able to get past him on the motorway!

MUPPETS!!!! I'm mean COME ON! it really annoys me how really bad the drivers are now!

• driving through red lights
• driving with fog lights on when no fog (seems to be the younger generation or people with flash cars)
• not using indicators
• driving while talking on the phone:eek:
• not moving over when there is no one in the other lane
• swinging out when taking a corner
• driving without lights on

and the best one of all
