Hit and run and pass and pass and pass and

[The Lone Gunman]

If you don't notice the car infront of you knocking someone into the air then you are driving without due care and attention.

And where do you get the idea she was knocked into the air? She said herself that the cars front wheel hit her leg (the rest of her was out of the way) and its back wheel ran over the same leg.
I dont see how that could include even a small flight.

I know of someone who swerved, pulled over and stopped when he saw a dead body on the motorway. It had been run over by at least 5 other cars in front that were seen to bounce and they lost count of the others that just ran over it whilst waiting for the plod.

They won't ever ever bother to stop and report again.

So what do you reckon made this driver deviate from the vicious herd mentality and stop to help (the by now helpless) victim?

Well, the front end of a lambo tends to catch on stuff like that, and they felt they were doing their good deed for the day.

I don't know many members of this board spend 99% of the time complaining about falling standards in this country and yet the same people condone this kind of turn the other cheek behaviour. The mind boggles

Name and shame, name and shame...

Why blame Thatcher, this was quite obviously caused by Harold Wilson.

It is strange though how problems can be attributable to prime ministers. I remember an engine of a rusty VW Polo I used to drive, blew up, I mean who else but Konrad Andenauer could have been responsible.

ahhhhhh...thatcherism. ain't it nice.

No, I think talking 'complete arse' is your job, isn't it

You could job-share? And then you would collectively increase the employment figures by 2.

HTH

I would like to think that I would stop and help the child, but I would be worried that a relative would think that I was the culprit, and kick the living out of me, or take me for a paedophile, and kick the living out of me.

Three years ago I stopped and helped at a car crash, and acted as a witness. I would expect anyone to do that.

Almost 10 years ago I saw 4 children, all about 12 years old, stealing a car in Hayes town centre. To my amazement people were paying no attention. I gave chase to one of the scum, but since I was carrying a large rucksack and tripod, and had spent the day walking 10 miles in the New Forest, I failed. I rang the police and the plod on the other end seemed bored, and uninterested, and I got the distinct impression that I could be done for wasting police time. I found his manner offensive. On another occasion I reported dangerous driving, and the plod on the desk took the piss out of me. Not long after I saw a car overtaking on blind bends, then drive on the wrong side of the road and go the wrong way round a roundabout dodging oncoming traffic. I didn't bother to dial 999.

Last night I found a group of chavs using a nature reserve as a play ground, with a fire and barbecue. I should have pointed out that numerous people put in large amounts of spare time to create a refuge for rare plants and animals, and they were destroying it, but I didn't want to get done over, so I stayed away.

And don't forget that the lad who was recently stabbed to death was intervening on behalf of a friend who was being picked on.
