General rant about the standards of driving these days!

Nothing like riding a motorcycle for making you a better car driver

Doesn’t explain drivers of Black Cabs though.

It should be compulsory for everyone to take a motorcycle test before they get into a car.

It should be compulsory that if you ride a motorbike then you carry a donor card.

 

[sparkdog]

A donor card for engine parts?

Checks calendar, yep it's still 2019.

Tel and Pirate will be donating their livers, well marinated so should cook well ;o))))))

Incidentally, I had to renew my driving licence today and the donor default is still OPT-IN. Should have been default in and OPT OUT years ago.

The 3 scenarios where you can undertake are:

1. In a one way street.
2. When a vehicle is indicating right (used to be when a vehicle is turning right).
3. When your lane is moving faster than other lanes to your right.

So option (3) has one covered for CLODs then!

I had one yesterday - 60mph in the third lane of a four lane stretch.

Nothing in the inner two lanes of course. it was all stacked up behind the tw*t in the third lane waiting for a slot in the fourth to get around him. (Actually, it was a her, but that is not relevant.)

I probably should have mentioned, that applies when there’s congestion.

What you need is a" CLOD hopper."

I remember on the old Novell servers there was a command line entry to Fire Phasers, we had fun with that one on Login Scripts.

You really need a disintegrator ray.
Get rid of the vehicles in your way, without clogging up the road with debris or damaging the road surface.

 

[Moley]

I remember an episode of Mythbusters where they had a huge wedge shaped plough attached to a truck. That might get things out of the way if you can't quite afford the disintegrator ray??

Had a near miss the other day heading to a job.

Its raining, can't carry on building the man shed.

The amount of people I see using mobile phones whilst driving still amazes me. Not big fan of hands free as well.

Drivers beware! I’m heading off down the A1 again, venturing forth towing my little house on wheels.
50mph all the way, and mostly single carriageway until Newcastle.
Then onward. To sunny (HA!) Scarborough area.
I will stick to the legal required speed limit, towing and wet roads... do you think I should drive even slower?

Mobile homes and speed bumps ,can also be entertaining ,till bits fall off in the road !
