Re: Gentlemen . . meet the opposition
amateur. on the same road a lot of years ago i witnessed someone reading a paper across the steering wheel while driving with their knees, shaving with an electric razor in one hand and a cup of beverage in the other paying no attention to the road.

Re: Gentlemen . . meet the opposition
Madness... Can the police prosecute the driver based on this sort of evidence?

Re: Gentlemen . . meet the opposition
And that my friends is the reason why when the traffic stops unexpectedly on ANY road you should ALWAYS filter and not just sit at the back of the queue.

Re: Gentlemen . . meet the opposition
Exactly. And even if I'm stuck in the car, I'll keep an eye on my mirror and get ready to head for the hard shoulder if I see some ***** like this barelling up behind me.

I had an interesting one a few years ago where I'd filtered past the solitary car at a traffic light, the driver gave me a dirty look for my impatience ... seconds later there was the squeal of tyres and a taxi slithered to a halt about 2 feet behind the car... driver carried on sending his text after he stopped... camel sh*gging c***... I also saw somebody run into the back of an 8 legger once too... battered to buggery quarry truck. Truck driver didn't notice and carried on which I thought was quite comical. Car looked like a write off!

Re: Gentlemen . . meet the opposition
Photographic evidence, witnesses, number plate.... surely this guy should be getting a ban now. What a complete tool.
