The only problem then would be getting a permit to fit a ships searchlight to the boot to keep the terrorists away
Vocab: terrorists = normal drivers
Guess that makes me a terrorist in your view, and your view being a bit extreme makes you an extremist. Or maybe we just stop having silly little pokes at each other. I favour the latter.
No no, it is not directed at you, Chwarae teg!
I would certainly maintain that the majority of truck drivers are psychopaths (keyboard suggested this word). An hour ago I turned off the Autobahn on the way home, there is a bend on the slip road with a maximum limit of 50 kmh. The terrorist behind me came very close and put his lights on full beam. What could I do, accelerate away? He would soon catch me up. He was not willing to wait just a few seconds, absolutely typical. I gladly let the killers by when possible
Truck drivers are particularly bad on single-carriageway roads too
Might be things are different in Wales, I only know the A 55 as far as Penmaenmawr roundabout
For worthy reasons I drive a small vehicle with a small engine (it does have four wheels and four seats) so I am very low in the pecking order. I wonder if I should upgrade?
