Even if I was to ignore it and drive straight over it, it's smaller than a speedbump by a factor of 3. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...ures-show.html The one in the photo on that page doesn't look very spectacular. A mini metro could manage that. http://www.mirror.co.uk/features/acc...roads--4163283 I don;t normally have a problem with them as I don;t drive but the lorry going through the last one that was full of water sprayed all over teh pedestrians walking past. As for cyclists and motor cyclist .... Oh the poor pedestrians getting all wet.... 3cm potholes? Luxury - round here we can only *dream* of 3cm. £100 a month council tax? What useful things do I get from this? Bin collection, that's it. If you bothered to look into it instead of bleating like a lazy **** you'd find you get quite a bit more. List me 5 useful things my council does for me that warrants paying them three times as much a month as you would pay Sky TV. Why don;t you lok at a website that tells you what your local concil does ? Looking at their main webpage: Libraries - never use them. Waste - what I listed already. Planning applications - I would guess you pay for those when you ask for them, so that doesn't come from council tax. Street lighting - nowhere near £100 a year per household. Schools - I don't have kids, why the **** should I pay for other kids' education? Birth certificates - I guess you pay for each one too. Or you could list 5 things that yuo do that are useful to anyone else. I don't get paid £100 a month by everyone in the area. My council does, so I expect something in return. I can choose not to pay Sky for TV, but I cannot choose to stop paying the council if I don't want their services. Whether the other things are what voters think they should get is another matter, but since 70% of voters are serially lazy ****s and don't vote in local elections, it's clear that most people don't give a monkey's. Voting for one of 5 people who have similar policies is not voting. I'd agree there and I don't know if I'll be able to vote or not. Why would you be unable to vote? -- The wife said to me last night "If you turn the bedside lamp off I'll take it up the arse." Maybe I should have waited for the bulb to cool down first. |

I've stumbled on a few myself as a pedestrian. If I was 90 years old and frail, I could have done myself an injury. When crossing the road, you look for cars, you don't tend to expect the ground to rise in a huge lump in front of you. Oh for crying out loud. I was in 1st gear! What a waste of fuel. http://petersphotos.com/temp/Slow.mp4 |

I have two broken car springs to prove it... Next time put your specs on before you go driving, before you don't notice the pedestrian in front of you. How the **** can you miss a hole that big? Because, Prof Hawkins, it's a black hole on a black road in the dark - and in the rain you have no chance as they all look like puddles. It's not dark with your lights on. One day, you really must learn to drive. Then you will *maybe* stop making such ludicrous statements on the subject. On the other hand, you are probably well aware of these things and are just trolling. We have spoken about this before, remember? I still believe he is. No matter what the subject, he thrashes it to death. Only because of the sheer number of idiots in here with the wrong opinions. I suggest you look in the mirror when you say that! Do you not think it is odd that NO ONE agrees with you??? -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |
