What a good thing that cars have colours or they would be
untraceable like cyclists. Woman in a red car, who left the scene
of the accident - easy to find her.
Cyclist too thick to remember a 7 string of numbers & letters.

Doh!

Just imagine yourself as a cyclist (yes I know that you 'grew' out
of it, but suspend disbelief). You are cycling along when some
motorist, too thick to look in her mirror, opens her door and
clangs you. You pick yourself up, number your parts, and stand
there holding your fractured wrist. Meanwhile the motorist
cheerfully drives away, leaving you uncertain what your name is
(Medley Hamburger, Muddy HoochyCoochyMan, Motley Humdinger, Mostly
Halftimer, Mosley Hewastheman?), let alone what was on their
numberplate.


Just imagine how much less informed you could possibly be if the
vehicle receding into the distance was a bicycle.

OK, we all know that what you describe happens, but at least the reg
mark is displayed.


OI! get back in my killfile, I got fed up of reading your drivel ages
ago.


Well done Mr N - you have him on the ropes :-)
