Default How to prove your wife is speeding!

In the car that is....

My wife always has a go at me for speeding (probably justified as I spent this morning in the Edinburgh Sheriffs Court!), but what annoys me is that she drives FASTER than me, but does so unaware so is actually more dangerous, and then she denies it.

Even when you are sitting next to her and point out that shes doing xx mph, she lifts her foot, then points at the speedo and say not I'm not, yes you were, no I wasn't! Get the picture.

So we're on the motorway now and she was doing xx mph again, so I stabbed the cruise control ON button. Of course she lifted her foot but the car maintained the same speed, the evidence right there on the speedo! Ha ha, finally caught red handed you little liar!

Now she has the cruise control set at 75mph and shes in the huff!

I prefer the non-dangerous method - which is to take a sneaky photo whilst yawning - which is not interferring with the driver controls whilst a passenger...if someone played with the cruise control whilst I was driving I'd kick them out the car at the next junction!

My parents pick me up on one hand on the steering wheel, 'speeding', taking corners too fast ect.
They are worse than me, sounds like double standards.
They try to validate this by saying, its old habits, can't be broken, been driving up 28 years ect. Since theyve been driving longer than me, it gives them the right to drive worse??

Good catch Ralph.... but i'm guessing no sexy times for you for a while.

Girls, they hate to be proved wrong

My girlfriend genuinely does not speed......ever. Not even with a bit of encouragment.

I'm a perfect driver.

I must be, I'm a traffic cop and we're perfect aren't we?

Mrs BP, now she's a liability behind the wheel, does her make-up, speeds, phones, the lot. I'll give her a ticket one day, after all, a tick's a tick!
