Dangerous Driving
In my walk along this moderately busy road I have seen motorists having their breakfast, numerous van/lorry drivers studying atlases (inc. one using a magnifying glass!), reading the paper/magazines etc.
|
The worst ever example of dangerous driving observed recently was a motorist going past me at 90 plus mph on a motorway, whilst reading a novel that was propped up on the steering wheel!

| 22-10-2007 | The other day were were travelling by car along the A14 at peak time. There was this biker weaving in and out of all shapes and forms of vehicles. About 20 mins later we saw him fly up into the air, must've been about 15 feet and Oh how we laughed! | DC |
| 26-8-2007 | I hear you. My personal favourite is people who do not indicate. In fact it incenses me so much that I have now taken to screaming things like "They are not there to decorate your car you know" at the top of my lungs everytime some moron almost runs me over or cuts me up. While I am aware ...more | Kelly M |
| 22-7-2007 | like changing lanes with no indicator or going left from the outside lane of a roundabout or driving in the rain with no lights on or driving at night with no lights or when tooted for being in the wrong the v sign grow up and learn to drive | driver |
| 23-2-2007 | Two years ago while driving down the M50 in Dublin, Ireland, I noticed through the rear window of the car in front of me, a man using his electric shaver. Nothing unusual about that except he was keeping the hand holding the shaver still and moving his head around it. | Upandaway |
| 22-11-2006 | Women are the worst for silly things whilst driving. Only the other day I noticed a woman applying eyeliner whilst driving. I was so shocked by this that I dropped my mobile phone.....which landed in my coffee between my legs, scalding my testicles.....which made me jump, dislodging the cigarette fr...more | Only Joking |
| 10-10-2006 | Saw a little gem on the TV a couple of nights ago. One of those "Fly on the Wall" police programmes. Some guy got stopped for wandering all over the road and driving very slowly, His excuse:
"Sorry officer but I was trying to understand the instructions my mate was giving me over m...more | Pat |
| 01-9-2006 | OK, now that TV is coming to a mobile phone near you, who is talking bets on the increase in accidents during (a) the next football biggie; (b) 'gripping' Eastenders episode (mind you, we should be well safe from that!). | Celia Molestrangler |
| 31-8-2006 | We love our sat-nav. We call her 'Arwen'. You would not believe what wonderful new lanes we have found in our motorhome, though having told her that we are a "lorry". Its marvellous being able to pick blackberries while we drive along.When we finally arrive at our destination, hair...more | White Van Woman |
| 29-8-2006 | For God's sake, S, if you must speak tongue in cheek at least have the decency to wind the window up, it's almost impossible to hear what you are saying when you are travelling at 90mph.! I would also remind readers that it is most disrespectful to read a book whilst speaking to someone on ...more | Fred from Finchley |
| 28-8-2006 | Fred from Finchley,
I second your comment about a passing car at 90+
Either he feels the need to exaggerate his point to get himself heard...
Or he himself must have been driving at close on 88-92MPH & have better than 20/20 vision in order to tell what he was reading.
If it was the ...more | S |
| 26-8-2006 | Fess must have extremely good eyesight and reactions, not only to be able to read the speedo of a passing car (90mph?), but also to distinguish the type of book the driver was holding (a novel?). However I think it was a bit far fetched when he or she witnessed someone driving whilst speaking on 4 m...more | fred from finchley |
