WOOHOO, i drive like an *******! i got a fast car and a lead foot! (its like been on jeremy kyle) i actually agree with the guy who said he uses his common sense. it is possible to drive fast and sensible, and probably like me, he does it on quiet roads, that he knows like the back of his hand.
on the other side of the coin, people who drive slow piiss me off. your in a 30, you drive at 30. your in a 60, you dont keep driving at 30.. speeds limits are there for a reason, and people should be punished for going too slow, not only too fast.
take a motorway slip road. they are designed to get up to 70 to allow you to join the flow of traffic, or at the minimum 55, so you can join at the same speed as wagons... what you dont need, is an ******* doin 30, until he joins the flow of traffic, cos that when crashes happen. i'm not a good or bad driver, i'm just an ok one... which means i put my foot down when i can, still havin consideration for other road users, but also slow down, and stick to speed limits, eg in built up areas.

now that is the biggest load of *ank to ever be spouted on a forum.....
there are more Idiots with money, than without, in my experience......
you know the sort.... "i spent 40k on my car, so i'm gonna sit in the fastlane so all the peasants can move out the way out of respect"
LMFAO when in reality its "i took a second mortgage to large off", when in a couple of months the tow truck will be round to reposess it.
everyone is equal on the road and should be respected as such...
(apart from the blatant poodlers and daydreamers!!!!)

2. cheers
3. there are some dodgy characters that linger around in forums trying to get as much info about cars as possible, mentioning the number plate, you inadvertently told someone where a certain car can be found. It may be a bit over the top but i just feel that mentioning number plate is not such a good idea.
Couple of years ago a friend of a friend got involved in a road rage, few months later put his car (red sierra) on exchange & mart, the person he had the row with realised that it was the same car seeing the number plate, called him up arranged a view, came to his house with two other guys and beat the crap out of him. There are plenty of red sierras about but the only way he knew it was by the number plate, he admitted that to the police.
There could be plenty of reasons, as I said I may be a bit over the top here.

So presumably you have a 'James Bond' flipover plate in case you have a road rage incident?
Friend of a friend eh...
Tell me, did this friend of a friend also get out of his car to take a note that had been placed on his rear windscreen off and get car-jacked? 
Like I said, the member in question has elected to use his registration as his username, I see no problem here... or to bother Webmaster with such a trivial matter

fair comment about the number plate saga... i can see your point now.
if you are gonna put a comment about someones driving, 9 times ouy of 10, people who drive round that area will know themselves who the culprit is. i think name and shame is a good idea cos it shows that people are on the lookout, but on the same hand its a bad idea, and should be left up to the police to catch them.

I think every one should just get over it and let it be, im annoyed that my reg. was put on here regarding a mistake, you could have just said green classic, i would have known who it was and put my hands up to it, these things happen dont they! im not happy but get over it life too short to be argueing about a silly mistake.

If you have seen somebody drive erratically and you suspect they are from SN then take the adult approach, post a thread saying you have spotted their bad driving, explain how it risks other peoples life, their own car, their licence etc.
How about you read the posts first. I stated that if you see someone driving like a k**b then name and shame him/her. Yet you say I live in cuckoo land, then you go and right the above which is exactly the same
. As for posting reg numbers whats the problem with that considering it's was the accused's user name anyway.
