What I saw on the way in to work this morning...
mmgemini:
Stop pointing fingers at us elderly people :twisted:
Rambler-Dents:
I'm referring to the ones who are incapable of driving and are causing serious accidents as a result. There are plenty of them in this area.
The most recent one demolished a petrol pump at our local Texaco station. The one before that hit someone whilst he was standing at the back of his van by the side of the road - taking his legs off in the process. My friend's dad was killed by one conking out at the wheel and coming across the road straight into him. There have been several serious accidents on our local A-road due to elderly drivers collapsing at the wheel. I've witnessed an accident caused by one driving down the the wrong side of a dual carriageway. I met one in a local village trying to drive the wrong way up a one-way street whilst gesticulating angrily to me for blocking his way.
I won't bore you with the full list, but in this area elderly drivers frequently make their presence known either through the newspapers after an accident, or simply whilst out and about. Based on what I have seen there are a lot of elderly motorists out there who are extremely dangerous and I repeat my comment about no one seeming to mention them in the same breath as road safety
Are you one of those types of people? If not then I'm not referring to you.
Boggert:
I bet the driver of the trailer has some massive whip lash! :lol:
