    You'll be fine as long as you don't carry passengers, listen to music, check your mirrors, indicate, change gear, use wipers etc. Obviously it would be reckless in to extreme to not have a military grade HUD installed.

    right , i'm off to the shops.

    i'll probably break the speed limit, the dog will be unrestrained in the front seat.
    i'll stop for a coffee on the way home, probably park taking up two spaces, while i go in for the coffee, and enjoy it while driving home.


    Wish me luck

    McG is complaining about meeting us maniacs with our coffees in hand on the road, yet his refusal to admit when he's wrong/been called out on some nonsense comparison are the type I personally hate encountering.

    Even when they make a mistake on the road (happens to us all) they refuse to just acknowledge it and apologise and instead plow on regardless.
    The only wrong committed here by me was thinking a bunch of mé féiners could possibly manage to see sense. Obviously this isn't going to happen.

    I hope someone as selfish and reckless as yourself doesn't get distracted and wipe out a load of members of your family.

    By jaysus, but you are some grumpy git! Calling us mé féiners when no one else but yourself is right, supposedly!

    When you've had to spend 6 months in hospital and nearly 10 years recovering, because some mé féiner cnut was too distracted to bother looking before pulling out in front of you, then come back and tell me I'm grumpy.

    Well I've only done 3 months in hospital and 5 years recovering from several shoulder operations after some guy did exactly that to me, but I don't hold a grudge against the entire nation for it.

    Happened to me a few months back, made a mistake that could have resulted in an accident, misjudged a car at a junction. The other driver had to slow down, I waved and apologised, he blew the horn, I apologised again, pulled dwon my window and said sorry,. He then started on me again, and I said, did you not hear me apologise, i've done it twice already.

    People do make mistakes, mine meant the driver had to slow down a bit as I mis-judged something, and could have resulted in a minor prang (if he refused to slow down and decided to hit me).

    Neither do I. Just the inconsiderate mé féin **** who only think of themselves and couldn't give a rat's arse if their actions destroy someone else's life.

    Thankfully i made it home in one piece :)

    The coffee was nice too :)

    But sure, you're turning into one of those 'inconsiderate mé féin ****' yourself. You refuse to see anyone else's point of view. Just condescend and insult. Anyone that has tried to debate the point with you has been called 'fool', 'detached from reality', 'couldn't care less if they kill someone', 'a fvking sh1t driver' and that's just to name a few.

    Perhaps you need to take a step back and take a good look at yourself and maybe stay away from public forums if you don't understand that other people will have opinions that are different to yours, but this does not make them fools or entitle you to label people as such.

    I think I'll stay. I'm enjoying myself... but thanks for the offer.
