You really couldn't make it up...
PW Lee in another newsgroup (and referring to a driver who had been
involved in a traffic accident): QUOTE: Why is he not being charged with both failure to stop after the initial collision and dangerous driving? He's clearly guilty of both. ENDQUOTE How about High Treason as well? QUOTE: And there is some evidence that he routinely breaks the law by driving the wrong way along this one-way street as a shortcut - no doubt cctv footage could be reviewed to substantiate that. ENDQUOTE I'd be all for that being done routinely and significant penalties being dealt out to offenders. Anyone care to hazard a submission on what class of vehicular traffic most often ignores one-way working? |

In this case a BMW driver. |

In this case: http://www.surreycomet.co.uk/news/ki...t_spooked_him/ It appears that the BMW driver was so shocked that a law abiding cyclist told him that he was going the wrong way down a one way street, that he collided with the cyclist before ploughing into several pedestrians, a brick wall and a London bus. The comments section of the report says it all. |

The comments section of the report says it all. Imagine how shocked MrNugent would be if a law-abiding cyclist told him to abandon his wrong ways and follow the path of virtue. Buses, pedestrians and brick walls would all have to flee! |
