Its two old blokes who have to chose between safety and the freedom
to visit friends I feel sorry for.

What sort a **** witted system is it that lets people operate
dangerous machinery in a public place that depends on everyone else
keeping out of its way.

Shall I practice my chainsaw juggling in tesco's, after all they make
a racket so everyone will know to keep a safe distance?

I'm not sure how that would help the economy, whereas motor vehicles
quite clearly do.

Our booming economy seems to equate to more congestion, more 4 by 4's, more
yard wide TV's, more stupid trainers, more people blind ****ed on alcopops,
more people getting blind ****ed on alcopops in far away places and more low
fat ready meals. All paid for on the never never secured against house
prices so inflated that no one under 30 can afford to leave home.

Its all a bunch of tat.

Highway Code, Rules 180-185.

When you're talking about pedestrians being AT FAULT in the
accident, yes it is. If they weren't at fault, those rules would be
relevant.

The rules I mentioned make no mention of fault.

I know. However they can be used by the Police / courts when they're
deciding who's at fault. Says something very similar at the beginning of the
HC I think.

The stats I was originally thinking of seem to have been moved as
the URL no longer works. They came from the DFT IIRC.

Who did you get the URL from?

It was posted in uk.rec.driving last year.

Better than an economy without cars, ie: a third world ********. You seem to
be complaining about society rather than the economy IMO. Anyone who wants
to leave home before 30 and reckons they can't are talking out of their
arses IMO. It's perfectly possible to get a council house in a lot of places
then right to buy it after 2 years. I agree that the house price bubble is
bloody daft though. A lot of people are going to lose out and a lot of other
people are going to make a lot of cash when it collapses. Just try to be in
the second group of people...

I had no idea that my ignorance of forum moderating would trigger this

You are lucky you weren't wearing a h*lm*t or riding an ali bike at the
time ;-)


Good thing you didn't mention the dirty knife either.

Move North or rent somewhere then.

Move North would be a great idea if it weren't for the underlying
reason why house prices are higher in the South: that is where the
jobs are. And as for renting - too risky, the sex trade is not an
attractive alternative to IT work.
