List your pet hates of motorists

[Dieselman]

I once went from just outside Carlisle to Kirkwall in a little over five minutes - mind you, I WAS in a Tornado.

Ha, ha.. LOL..

I'll add "smug" to "piety" - as well as brazenly admitting to regularly breaking the driving laws of the land.

Having accrued "nearly 50 years" of motoring experience, I presume you are around 65 years of age and am surprised that still you retain such a cavalier attitude.

My solo driving career started at 15, "TWOC-ing" my father's Standard Vanguard and tearing around the countryside. In the intervening 47 years, I have pulled some shocking stunts but, throuigh good luck, and a modicum of skill , have never had, or caused, an accident.

Nowadays, I don't kid myself that I'm any more than competent and have long since hit on the head any heroics such as your foray into Wales.



(BTW, come back to me when you achieve over 220 miles in two hours...)

You can call me whatever you like del ...."sticks and stones". However I don't agree that I have a cavalier attitude. That implies a disregard for others' interests - something that is totally opposed to my philosophy and driving style.

As for breaking driving laws, yes I'll drive at over the speed limit sometimes ...... but only where the prevailing conditions (weather,visibility, road surface, traffic, crowds) permit. And even then by no more than 10% or so. I don't think I should get hung for that!

tac beat me to my answer to your challenge. Although not in a Tornado, I was in a Slingsby Firefly - some of the time upside down but no doubt you'll complain about that too!

...or a Vauxhall driver.

I hate the "holier than thou" drivers corp.
I confess to eating, farting, drinking, being distracted by pretty young women(and in all honesty some ugly old ones), using my mobile, tampering with the radio, scratching my ****, sometimes being in the wrong lane, breaking the speed limit, and sometimes getting annoyed with other people doing any of the aforementioned.
I dont make a meal of the excavations from my nose however.

You may pay for a Vehicle Excise License (vehicle tax disc) but you do not pay "road tax".
It is a taxation upon motor vehicles, not pedestrians, bicycles and animals, to license them for use upon the public highway.



Indicators are not optional accessories.

Ah Pedantry!

Fair enough - I pay all the stuff for my car, but prefer to ride a bike......
