In either case it never knows if I have read it's reply or not. Eventually it might even tire of being taken the **** out of, without ever having a chance to hit back. |

Have you always been an odious ****, or is it only behind the safety of your monitor? |

I thought you'd promised Trevor Panther that you wouldn't get involved in such discussions; but you just can't stay away can you? You do have remarkable abilities Guy - I can assure you that I don't go incandescent with rage; however, I suspect that from some of your diatribes against me you certainly do so. I think you will not be able to find a "rant" from me - but of course there have been quite a number from you. It is a pity that you're not speaking to me as you could have told me what my "cherished illusions" are. Have you taken my advice and sought medical help as I recommended some time ago; I certainly believe that you have a medical problem. Has depression been diagnosed? - you show all the symptoms. judith -- I encourage my children to wear helmets. (Guy Chapman) I have never said that I encourage my children to wear helmets. (Guy Chapman) I would challenge judith to find the place where I said I encourage my children to wear helmets. (Guy Chapman) I pointed out the web page He then quickly changed the web page - but "forgot" to change the date of last amendment so it looked like the change had been there for years. |

Hello Round - good to see you joining in the "let's wind up the trolls" session which the regulars here so love. When did you think you took the **** out of me? - I must have missed it. (PS I hate to pick up on your English - but I do see my education of you as quite important - as you do seem to be lacking one. Have a read up on possessive apostrophes before the next lesson would you.) (How are the extra-curricular activities coming along?) PS There's a grammatical mistake in the above - can you spot it? judith -- I encourage my children to wear helmets. (Guy Chapman) I have never said that I encourage my children to wear helmets.

It does of course remind us all that cycling can be very dangerous. Cycling is not dangerous. What can be sometimes dangerous is the actions of the person riding it or as is usually the case people around them. This is without disputing that there are some accidents that are the fault of cyclists - just like some pedestrian accidents are the fault of pedestrians. Generally speaking many courts are of the opinion that a motorist who hits a pedestrian is at majority fault even if the pedestrian is not looking - yet the same is not always the case with a cyclist involved with a motorist. Dave I disagree - cycling on road is dangerous - as the cyclist is so dependant on the actions of others - irrespective as to how careful the cyclist is being. In the same way that pedestrians are vulnerable to cyclists on pavements - irrespective as to how careful the pedestrian is being. In the same way that pedestrians are vulnerable to motorists on pavements - irrespective as to how careful the pedestrian is be You are of course quite right - but not to the same degree of magnitude *- *you are more likely to be hit by a bike on the pavement than you are by a car. Perhaps. Anecdotally, I've never been hit by a car on a pavement, I have been hit by 2 bikes in the last year alone. But you're more likely to be killed or seriously inhured from being hit by car on a pavement though. |

Many thanks for posting that. It does of course remind us all that cycling can be very dangerous. I think you'll find it's being hit by a car that's dangerous. Being hit by an SUV is a lot more dangerous than being hit by an average car. I wonder why the MP considers it acceptable to drive a Land Rover through an area where lots of pedestrians congregate. Surely if you have a collision such his one, and you are driving an SUV, this should be taken into account and you should be held even more liable than if you had been driving a small car. Do we have SUV's in the UK? Why should it not be acceptable for the MP concerned to drive a Land Rover? It could be argued that because of a higher driving position he would be able to see better. Yes, as a tory, he should be used to looking down upon people. But, in practice ... "Last October [2005] the BMJ published an American study showing that 4x4s were more dangerous to pedestrians than normal cars. Tests showed that people who were hit by the vehicles in accidents were four times more likely to die than those hit by other cars." ....... in America. Please explain the difference between being hit by a two-and-a-half-tonne 4x4 in the USA and being hit by a two-and-a-half-tonne 4x4 in Parliament Square. -- Dave Larrington http://www.legslarry.beerdrinkers.co.uk I am the Disgruntled Employee; I am the New Face of Labour Relations. |
