a day out

[briggie]

I went to see the Red Arrows today.

There were gasps of "Ooh" and "Aah" as the crowds watched on in amazement. Near miss after near miss had some people covering their eyes and shaking their heads in disbelief.

It was a good half hour's worth of entertainment, but in the end, my wife finally managed to park the car and we made our way to the air show.

Mind you, I've seen your in car camera footage too.. lol

With our in car camera, with each motorway journey we can gather enough evidence on other drivers to keep the courts busy for a week.

Middle lane hogging
Lane changing at the last minute.
Lane changing, or entering or leaving a motorway without signalling
Drivers on mobile phones.
Undertaking, sometimes using all three lanes.
Tail gating
Trailers in the outside lane of three lane motorways
Trailers or caravans doing 80 mph
Motor cycles creating their own lane in between slow moving traffic, haven't they noticed that some drivers just don't look or even care when changing lanes.

Would the police be interested in this..... No I doubt it.
Often they are the greatest offenders of not indicating when changing lanes
Luckily, not seen any police car with a trailer though, or even a tow bar, although some Police 4x4's use them for recovery work.


Which reminds me...
The other day, Thursday last week, heading north on the M40 we saw two army land rovers, each with a trailer, and on each trailer another land rover.
Are land rovers so unreliable that the Army now drive along with a spare just in case, and to be absolutely sure, travel in convoy?
