Kiddie Cars
In 2017 more than 1,000 children were banned from driving in the UK. This is a rise from 2014 when the figure was 696. Of those banned, 33 of them were under the age of 13, and all were banned from driving a car for at least 4 years, this before they ever become legally able to drive cars. This number is likely to be tip of the iceberg, and of course all of these children will ignore the ban, and just get hold of cars again probably, without taking the test or getting insurance, or the owners permissions. We have lost the plot ....
Court At The Wheel
Michael Bedwell likes to drive. He has an X type Jag, and loves to roar about in it, even when he's been drinking. He was caught and prosecuted at Hastings magistrates court and was given a years ban.
However he had driven to court, so in Mr Bedwells world, he should also be able to drive home after a ban. He was caught half a mile away from the court house by the police who duly arrested him and took him to the cells where he spent the night before going back before the magistrates.
This time he was jailed for 16 weeks for driving while disqualified and uninsured. His ban was extended to 25 months because of his 'blatant disregard for the earlier judgement'. If I am any judge of character Mr Bedwell is likely to be driving the moment he is out of prison ... ban or no ban.
Busted Bus Driver
Grezegorz Erdmanski was a bus driver in Bristol in the UK. He took a wrong turn on his route, and blithely carried on 28 miles into South Wales. This was no mean feat as it involves crossing the Severn bridge. Fortunately there were no passengers on board at the time because he then crashed the double decker bus. He was found to be drunk and over three times the limit, and he was banned from driving, but not from the country ..... makes you wonder how drunk much of Eastern Europe is much of the time.

That air freshener explosion is impressive! ...and I see that it wasn't a unique occurrence.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're having a good time in Edinburgh, I look forward to your reviews.
Actually that air freshener explosion was rather worrying. Who hasn't used body spray and then had someone light a cigarette or near a naked flame? .... and yes i had a good time. Cheers.
DeleteAss slapping from a bike is a new perversion to add the ever growing list of strange ways men get sexual satisfaction. I guess the underwear stealer is another.
ReplyDeleteIt's no wonder that women think men strange creatures.
Those things are manifestations of the sexual impulse, not satisfaction.
DeleteWhat would be strange is none of the above - either there would be no impulse or everyone is getting satisfaction.
Actually I agree with anon. For some men they get to achieve physical satisfaction from the anticipation and then the sexualised act. They don't need what we might think of as normal sexual contact on top of their obsessive / compulsive interests.
