# well
if thats the case...would it not be a good idea to put them up in hospitals as I hear that they have a rather high mortality rate.....

# I don't think
you should drive around in a car in the
hospital.

Unless it's a little car like Noddy has

# Handy tip for not getting fined even when you do get caught -
Ride a bicycle.

# you can be done for speeding on a bike.
In the park at crystal palace there is also a 5mph speed limit for rollerbladers and skateboarders.

# now thats funny.
Apparently, you cant be done for being drunk in charge of a horse. Food for thought if you are pissed of with fifty quid friday night post pub taxi rides.

# You can be arrested
as drunk in charge of a motor vehicle if you're sleeping it off in your car while it's parked up somewhere safe...

# not if you leave the keys outside the car.
Fact.

# how about
driving on the wrong side of the road, would that work?

# drive backwards?
perhaps that would work?
(I helped save b3ta! ChaosTime The Fucking Moon Lord, Wed 17 Sep 2003, 15:21, archived)
# only
if you're driving backwards too.

# If you travel at somewhere above 340 mph it will
Fact!

# I fully agree
except for when they're stuck on the motorway miles from the nearest set of roadworks etc.

Have a woo for the pic though!

# not me.
Im proud to say I have speed tested every motorbike I have owned down the A50.

Speed kills, I know, but then again so does driving at 15mph in a 40 zone, and a hefty perentage of road accidents are caused by cars doing less than 30.

Another (random) noteworthy fact is that traffic cops cause more fatalities each year than ecstasy does.

# Thank you
For saying what I wanted to, but couldn't be bothered to.
less the bike and A50 bit

# Bravo!
God, this bored(!) is populated by real uptight guys today!
The pic was funny so I though that I'd share. Jesus you'd think I'd said 'Bin Laden is my mate' or something.

What is the point of speed traps on quiet country lanes at 7am? I know I may end up a horses arse or into a tractor but highly unlikely to take out a bus full of school kids.

I have two small boys and never speed or text when they are with me. They sit quietly in their carseats and listen to Mr Manson. When they are not in the car, when the roads are clear and the weather is fine then I THRASH the arse of my car. Mr Plod just got lucky one day.

ACTUALLY, my best mate is a copper and half of her office has been done - even the Police know that it is a money making scheme for the Chief Constable.

AND, whilst I'm on the subject - my hubby is a casualty doctor and sees more RTA's now than 10 years ago - so who says that these F****** Gatsos save lives?
OK, rant over. Live and let live and all that crap.
PS - I miss my Ducati . . .
