Well thaaaanks Ludwig… for fiiiinally telling us about “Hoons in Hyundais”!

I am now certain that you are an old stodge who just wants to deny drivers any fun behind the wheel, and turn driving into some totally boring menial activity.

I can just imagine you saying; ‘driving is about getting from A to B in the safest possible manner, end of story’.

O excuse me for snoring!

Hooooorrghh \:>[

Ludwig, Ludwig. Luuuudwig. Do you really think our streets should be race-tracks, drag-strips or rally courses??

Of cooourse driving should be about getting from A to B in the safest possible manner!

Do you really find driving so tedious that you have to be a hoon or one of these fools who tries to play silly buggers with other drivers or who is so impatient that they aggressively tailgate, speed and change lanes all the time?

Come on, ol buddy!

If you want to liven up the daily commute a bit, then turn on your radio or your favourite music or, and here’s a novel idea; take an interest in the environment around you outside of your car….and enjoy the trip in an unrushed, relaxed and SAFE manner!

Now presumably this little lecture has caused to nod right off!

Alright Lud…

That’s clearly the most informative post that you have put on this thread yet!

So are you going to tell me what generated this wonderful pearl of wisdom??

Huh?

Too many young male drivers push their cars as though they are in a V8 Supercar race. They lack the commonsense and maturity to realise that they are on a public road/suburban street not at a raceway.

Just think: all that power under their right foot - but nothing between their ears.

Yeah I’ll tell you Luddie.

It’s really very simple: all the talk in the world won’t improve safety on our roads. And so far all the posts that I have put on this thread haven't amounted to molehill of beans!

So I agree, “blah” is just about as useful as anything else I have written here over the last 18 months.

Bloody depressing I’ll tell ya. Especially when in theory it is all so easy to implement real improvements.
