So, if anyone remembers, back when that guy borrowed a 911 Turbo and got nicked for doing 170mph+ the Brake spokesmoron referred to "his deadly crime" - odd, considering nobody was injured, let alone killed, how was his crime "deadly":confused:
every since, i've longed to here those words "We have with us tonight ******** from the road safety charity Brake..." because i know they're going to say something monumentally stupid, but i think this time "Lorna Jackson" really has surpassed all previous efforts...
Regarding the woman banned for driving at less than 10mph on the motorway:
Brake's spokesman, Lorna Jackson said, “This case sends out a very strange message to drivers. Mrs Cole was not breaking the speed limit or endangering anyone with her actions, yet she received a seven day ban, when we commonly see drivers caught travelling at 80 or 90mph get away with a fine and three points. While it is not common to encounter someone travelling at 10mph on a motorway, a competent driver should always be looking well ahead and predicting when they need to overtake a slower vehicle."
