a guy at work tells of a neighbour who pulls out of her drive into the
queue for the school run (big 4x4 obviously) and queues the few
hundred yards to the school, then drives the long way home to avoid
school traffic. She cant let the little cherubs walk because of the
traffic, and she knows it would be quicker to walk with them but
she's bought the car so may as well use it ....

There's many a parent around here drives a full 400 yards to take their
precious bundles to school,shameful.
