Default Car Nation, Sunday Night

Did any of you see this on Sunday night BBC2? Did I hear right, the copper sat at the side of the motorway, car goes past at 82 (I think) and he said it wasn't worth going after?

Can you believe that **** scaffold company bloke?!

Forever on the phone (handheld) whilst driving, and THEN driving along in his truck with two of his kids in the front - totally unrestrained!

The **** in the sunnglasses who saw every driver as a 'competitor' also needs a damn-good kicking!

I did wonder about that scaffold bloke, on the phone and his registration number being shown!

Must admit, it does make you want to get off the road, but is walking a safer option, I think not.

And 'they' think that bikers are dangerous...

Made me laugh the guy and his sister (she was driving) and he was mouthing of at every car on the road thinking he was the big guy

Not really shocked that the scaffolder has the kids running amok in the front of the lorry like , seems to be par the course for most people woth oversized cars/vans jeeps etc

I suppose he was waiting for a bigger fish... 82 on the motorway's not a huge deal, and if he goes after that one then maybe he misses someone doing a hundred?

Haven't seen this before but I watched it for the first time this Sunday (10th). Interesting...

The kid whose attitude to cars was it's your right to have as many and as big cars as you like, I'll be dead in 50 years so pollution won't be my problem, the next generation can sort it out made my fists itch.

As for the guy who took his kids to the zoo and lectured them at length on how global warming was melting the ice caps and killing the arctic foxes... before driving them home in a Humvee...
