Must say it's this what really annoys me, show's the state the country's in if people can't use basic manners, it only takes a second to lift your hand up in a gesture of thanks or even just to mumble something.
I make a point of shouting thankyou at drivers who are ignorant if they have...
Where have I said Single track lane? The majority of single track lanes I've driven on you can barely get above 15mph let alone upto 60 as the road surface is that bad.
Also your more likely to see said combine harvester, as on a single track lane it would be scattering branches all over the...
A twonk!! Haven't heard that in years :)
It all depends on who you listen to with regards to driving/riding on country roads, I will continue to drive in accordance to the road/weather conditions.
Maybe I was being daft but it was all in a what if/never kind of way so I'll stand by it lol
So you're saying that I should drive at 5 mph around every corner I see just in case? Nobody would get anywhere, plus if I wanted to do that I'd buy a Porsche.
That hypothetical car coming the other way will have seen the riders riding side by side and in an ideal world will be driving slow...
OK you got me there but you didn't pick up on the fact that the riders were side by side after a corner, one horse I could avoid but two, i'm not so sure, anyway it was a point made hypothetically.
Country roads can be made enjoyable for all without lowering speed limits otherwise you'd...
Not if said officer is first on scene, what would you rather they do? - preserve the scene or assist the person/people who are injured. Personally if it was me I'd rather that they dealt with the injured and worry about what caused the crash until the road is clear of other emergency vehicles...
Speed limits are for the roads and there for good reason, private airfields/tracks are the place to go if you want to drive like a lunatic. I always drive to the conditions of the road and always will do.
Hypothetical - If travelling on a country road at 60 (speed limit)and you come to a...
Are you not supposed to ride alongside when your riding with a young or inexperienced person? Surely your husband holding the lead rope is not enough. What if the pony rears up? Not a lot your husband can do to prevent that unless he's a bodybuilder and even then he may struggle.
My kids are...
I imagine that the traffic officer who attended the accidents, as well as the ambulance service, main priority was to make sure the injured were being taken care of before transport to hospital. For the officer to speculate what happened would be pretty stupid IMO, until the full report is...
As awful as this accident is and I feel for the owner I really do, has anyone stopped for a minute to ask how the driver of the car is? Roof ripped off the car and head injuries does not sound as though the woman would have gotten off lightly. Also does anyone actually know that she was...
