The run to work

[radim]

Bl@£y hell mate thats the same van as i drive ,but mine is unsigned ,when,how, did this happen RAD ??......

that was year ago. I was travellin to work on motorway and lorry from opossite direction crossed central reservation and overturned (probably sleep) on straight bit of road at the same time as I was comming on and hit me with corner of the trailer to drivers side and sent me in to ditch. But van was total wreck.and some tools damaged.
wish I had dash cam installed.

These days, all I'm seeing is the fuzz sitting behind every corner possible with their speed gun out to catch the poor little single mother that's struggling to get by rather than catching ACTUAL criminals!

maybe they shouldnt be speeding or texting while they drive

 

[John Benton]

A mate of mine has been caught 3 times in 2 months whilst on phone, twice in the same place :mad2:

He's just got his insurance renewal through, gone up from £700 to £1500, 9 points on licence and £180 in fines :mad2:

My step-daughter in a forensic collision investigator and she goes to too many deaths caused by idiots on phones, and idiots speeding/not being able to drive at the correct speed for the road conditions!!!

She has to go and knock on the families front door and give them the news!!!

I'm working in London next Sunday, bank holiday weekend so I imagine I'll see lots of traffic jams! You don't need to make excuses Radim, think most of us would have peed ourselves if that happened:lol:

 

[Bubblecraft]

Don't get me wrong, people should obey the laws of the road as these things do cause accidents but there is a ridiculous amount of Traffic Police about these days.
I'm sorry, but I have lost respect for the Police. I used to think highly of them until there was an incident that I was involved in where they lied on their statement which made me look like a fool when I went to claim personal injuries.

 

[DHTiling]

If you are driving within the law , does it matter how many police are on the road ?

Cannot see a problem here. Only dodgy or drink drivers want less traffic police.

 

[Bubblecraft]

I find the cops presence can cause accidents as people slam breaks on when they see them without checking in their mirrors.

I've nothing to hide, stay within the law & have a clean licence.

But if they were driving safely then they wouldnt feel the need to slap on their brakes.

Exactly. Brake hard if you feel guilty

Part of the reason I quit road riding.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Nothing better than driving along the Military Road as the mist and sun are rising - Hadrians Wall.
