Downright Bl00dy Stupidity At Its Best

[pedro7680]

now this was recorded on our way to Edinburgh cruise on the M8

i was in utter horror,

the recording quality isnt too great, but all i will say is my gen 5 goes off the clock at 110, and this is not funny,

not funny

link gone, before i get banned!

your right, i sat and watched that in utter horror...

being that close to his rear bumper at that speed - if he so much as tapped the brakes you would've rear ended him..

sheer lunacy!

[GT4 BOOSTER]

lol having to tail gate a coach so ur motor does a ton due to less wind resistance is pretty pityfull.

i'd sooner have the coach ,seemed to have more power.

[pedro7680]

the coach was crazy!, couldnt believe what i was seeing.

[Fidgits]

the coach was crazy!, couldnt believe what i was seeing.

not as crazy as the muppet glued to his rear bumper at those speeds!

"i was in utter horror"

yeah i could hear you shouting for him to back off <_<

not sure who was driving or who was videoing but the question of WHY comes to mind

doesnt look that close !

wouldnt imagine a coach of that size would have air brakes, i am sure if the reactions were ok ,the coach would take far longer to stop

good sounds though

[pedro7680]

yeah it wasnt close, i made sure of that i aint a taigater at all.

the passanger video'd it, and maybe was playing with the zoom part of the cam corder,

it was recorded because it is ******s like that on the road that cause lifes to be lost, and even for a %$(in bus to be doing speeds like that, overtaking and under taking, was why it was recorded,

should i just have not recorded it and said their goes another nutter?

but ive never seen anything as stupid.

[MsB]

you dont actually look that close

the bus at no point undertakes or even overtakes anything

cant really see clearly how near the bus was to the golf

the only bad driver is the golf, for not pulling over

as for doing 110 mph , no way !!

that would mean all three main vehicles were doing at least 110

and as the golf actually pulls away from you he would be going faster

the traffic up ahead would also be doing 110 as you do not catch them up or even get closer to them

perhaps it was a mistake to post

:D :D

[pedro7680]

possibly, now im branded a danger

[GT4 BOOSTER]

my celica would of been passed them if the speedo read that ammount. :P :P

dont worry pedro , they have all taken their cars to the ton spot as we all do.maybe its time you deleted the link .

[pedro7680]

i took the decision though that it would be safer to be behind that ******!.

i'm sorry if anyones offened by that video, but i think in public interest that people need to be aware of things like that,

sure i can understand say a celica going fast, but not a bus,

and sure id even like to see the driver getting his knuckles wrapped.

i wasnt actively promoting my own dangerous driving, cos i was driving safe that day, and i also know that id have been able to stop in time.

No worries Pedro I know what you were getting at.

In the paper today Police stopped a coach driver after recording him on camera with his mobile phone in his right hand held to his ear. He reached over with his left hand to open the window whilst travelling at motorway speeds no handed and had a young girl sat on the dashboard.

He has been reported for driving without due care and attention and is expected to recieve a short ban.

He is quoted as saying " It won't happen again as I have thrown my mobile away and will not be getting another" That's Ok then!!

[pedro7680]

see, that sums it up.

ive never used my mobile whilst driving ( honestly dont believe in it, as they can ring back or ill ring back )

but because i was going slightly fast suddenly im branded a nutter!

no comment !

Shouldn`t worry about it pedro. We`ve nearly ALL done something thats either daft or APPEARS daft to others. So anybody that slates you (Rightly or wrongly) is probably a hypocrite. :D
