Good to see the Speed Plod & the Law thread is still full of sensible, serious, Speed Plod & the Law type discussions conducted by intelligent, polite, respectful contributors.

 

Well, at least thay all seem to be integrating sucessfully.

 

Apart from mybrainhurts.

 

Perhaps he realises the dangers of people who are two closely related integrating too much.

 

 

But what'd it all about you might ask?

Would you mind speaking in English please. I don`t understand fluent bollox. What has the rubbish you have posted got to do with the fact that at 11pm there is a definate hazard from pedestrians who are the worse for wear. Oh yes - no-one "deserves a funeral" for stepping into the road. The driver was going to fast. Is that too difficult a concept for you? Whatever you consider a reasonable speed, the posted limit was 30mph. End of argument.

Actually, what they actually don't like you to do is to actually make clear when you are not quoting someone by doing something like this:

towman might as well have said:

Oh yes - no-one "deserves a funeral" for stepping into the road. The driver was driving a great big heavy cumbersome impractical uneconomic wasteful dangerous 4x4/ TVR/ luxury car.

14:12   A concern for the CC was that another missing person has been reported. Someone by the name of Mr Edward Diesel has not been seen or 'herd' of for some days now. It was thought at some stage that he may have gone off to join the missing Ilk and efforts to locate both of them are continuing. There is some speculation that both of those missing may be related. There was a rumour that Mr Edward Diesel was taking a spoof identity from an important cyber identity being Mr Teddy Petrol. In fact it was Mr teddy Petrol who started us on the trail that Mr Diesel was in fact a previous missing person known as 'Bogbrush' (a gift from doG).………….. ……….This is an official press release with regard to the missing Ilk.

And it's taken me how long to spot it?

 

At least I can gain some comfort from the fact that Petty Teddy has been suckered by him for far longer!

 

 

No wonder he struggles with my posts and resorts to amusing himself in his own special way!

 

And no wonder motorists are getting everything they deserve.

He has to be towed everywhere.

 

Because he can't drive.

 

 

 

Because he doesn't know anything about acceleration.

 

 

 

Cos it's a physics expression ffs!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

Duh!

 

The 85th percentile, as in speed limits should be, as they used to be, set to the 85th percentile speed, is the whole basis of the argument against arbitrary speed limits in general, and the lowering of speed limits in particular, especially in conjunction with draconian enforcement by speed cameras.

Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.

From the aptly titled:

 

FAO Paul Smith and ABD members   [2]

 

 

I'd jump to the conclusion that Pistonheads was a clever spoof by T2000.

You know, generally taking the mick out of motorists.

By allowing them to shoot themselves in the foot by slagging each other off.

Providing a forum for various factions to campaign against drink (not drunk) driving / bull bars / 4x4s / school run drivers / people who are nearly killed by pedestrians throwing themselves at their cars / etc / etc.

And for various factions to go over the top defending sports cars / speeding / etc / etc.

And even a place for them to show themselves up boasting about how the "practical" jokes they've played.

And to attack and denigrate other motorists.

(Hang on, do I recognise that Towman?)

But never actually allowing anything that would support their cause to be posted.

Especially if it tries to go into any depth with supporting argument.

Or even proof!

 

Take this thread for example:

dropped kerb.....they think they own...

 

Ordinary motorist, doing nobody any harm, posts a simple reasonable technical legal query.

About a simple action a reasonable ordinary motorist might perform.

That does nobody any harm.

And gets mauled by the Pist onheads.

As does anyone coming to his defence.

 

So the Pist onheads must really be.................?

Nottingham Evening Post said:

No go roads for L-plate drivers Sean Kirby Environment Correspondent 25 April 2005 Angry residents are turning some Notts roads into 'no go' areas for learner drivers. It is claimed that residents have: - Verbally abused drivers during lessons and tests - Stood behind cars during manoeuvres - Protested to the Driving Standards Agency. Now 'no go' warning notices at three Notts test centres list streets L-drivers should avoid. Instructors claim it limits where they can take learners, affecting their driving progress. The problem has been caused by the rising number of learners. Instructor Lee Burrows, 31, of the A-Level Driving School in Gedling, said: "We are starting to run out of places to go.'' He believes residents need to be more lenient. Civil engineer Chris Harrison, 47, of Duncroft Avenue, Gedling, said: "You can get four or five cars on the avenue at once, they come in waves." The DSA's Nottingham-based national headquarters confirmed instructors were asked not to use certain roads if residents complained. Longer article: L-plates are driving wedge

So, when they all move to a less suitable area, and so get even more complaints, and so are barred from that area even more quickly, and then move on to an even less suitable area..............
