Just shows Religion is running out of things to do!!! I particularly like the fact they ask motorists to "pray when behind the wheel" LOL. Way to go Pope, thats guaranteed to kill at least a few of your sheep!!

MAYPOP

The Vatican today issued a set of "10 commandments" for drivers, telling motorists not to kill, not to drink and drive, and to help fellow motorists in case of accidents.

aww crap, no more mowing down children

Oryx

Thou shalt not splash pedestrians with puddles
Thou shalt not hog the overtaking lane
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbours parking space.
Thou shalt not use hazard lights as 'park anywhere lights'
Thou shalt not call the driver in front a w**ker
Thou shalt not drive over hedgehogs for sport
Honour thy ncd.
Indicators are not optional, thou shalt use them.
Amber traffic lights DO NOT mean speed up
Thou shalt not give rude handsignals

No spare hand for blessing myself,
What with the phone,coffee and fag on the go.
Oh well just goes to show they are right when they say there is no room left in modern life for religion.

Never thought I'd say this, but I agree with the Vatican on this one. Some motorists are truly bad people.

Unless of course he is a wa*ker by breaking some of the rules you forgot, like
Thou shalt not use your fog lights (front or rear) when there is no fcuking fog.
Thou shalt not tailgate.
Thou shalt not accelerate when being overtaken.

Thou shalt have the intelligence to put on thy L plates the right way up, lest thee be smitten from the Lord's highway amid wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Beaten to the foglight one I see, drat...

It's not as far-fetched as you might think!

When I was 9 or 10, I well remember the story going round of an accident in the (very rural) area. The driver was a retired primary teacher of about 80, who drove an ancient Mini (let's call her "Mary" for handiness). It was her habit to take her rosary beads with her when driving, strung between her two hands, and only then to grasp the steering wheel. Mary was a notoriously nervous / bad driver, and locals who knew her would regularly pull in to the side of the road and stop when they saw her coming, and allow her to make her own way past in her own good time ... reckoning it was safer in the long run!

One Friday she was heading to the local village, and seeing a neighbour of similar vintage setting off on her bike in the same direction, she offered her a lift. Despite some misgivings, as it was pouring rain and the village was only a mile away, the neighbour accepted. All went well until they reached a particularly bad bend just before the village, when a fairly large van suddenly appeared around the bend, coming towards them at a higher speed than was sensible on a narrow, crooked road.

The passenger later reported that all she heard was "Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, save us!" as Mary proceeded to let go of the steering wheel completely, hanging on fervently to her rosary beads, of course! The car promptly buried itself into the ditch on the bend, luckily without anyone being more than shaken up, as Mary probably wasn't doing more than 20 mph at the time anyway.

The passenger, when she had recovered herself a bit from the fright, let her tongue run away with her a bit on the subject of people letting go of steering wheels and hanging on to rosary beads instead, and how Mary could have caused the two of them to be killed. The response? "Sure, wasn't it the blessed beads that saved us?!"

:rolleyes:
