"Soft" A bars/bullbars...
skip:
The sad irony is that all the mums with various 4x4s with bullbars drag their kids in and out of school, and when doing so are not keeping proper control of them and poor little johnny gets splattered over the tarmac.
What happens? it must be the bullbars fault OBVIOUSLY!
I used to go to see a friend not far from me, I kept telling him his kids where going to get run over as he just let them run riot over the road. which was a through road BTW. I used to parkup and they'd be running round the car and I nearly squashed one, I just saw the top of this little lads head bobbing along the bottom of the passenger side window :shock:. I forgot to mention the eldest was about 9 years old and the youngest was 4 at the time.
Anyway the worst did happen. thankfully I wasn't involved in anyway, the girl Kate ran straight out from behind her fathers parked car and directly into the front of a passing car. it was doing less than 20mph past the house as the woman driving knew what it was like there. Unfortunatley kate got dragged under the nearside front wheel, it did an awful lot of damage to one of her legs and nearly had to have it amputated.
Kate spent 3 weeks in hospital and I think around 10 months with what looked like scaffolding around her leg, not to mention various skin grafts etc.
The worst part is during her stay at hospital the only people there with her were my mother inlaw and my wife as her parents went on the holiday they had booked.
Where was the responabiltiy, it wasn't the car drivers fault, i'd even go as far as to say that the poor woman driving should have sued the parents for mental anguish etc due to their neglegance, the poor cow was distraught. but everyone tried to blame her.
Needless to say I never spoke to them again.
Lord Shagg-Pyle:
perhaps one solution would be to make the bullbars out of confectionary, a bit like the car in the Skoda add. At least the person who might get hit by it could then eat the bar before it did any serious damage.
Of course to be completely PC, the bar couldn't contain any E numbers or artificial colouring and would have to have a sticker on it, saying, 'colllision with this bar may cause tooth decay'.
This totally ridiculous post was brought to you by the warped mind of Lord Shagg-Pyle and a bottle of red wine.
