Go to the nearest Post Office and hand your licence back, you're not fit to be behind the wheel of any vehicle.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it was much higher back then. I was damned lucky not to completely knacker my suspension!
It's easily done, and I didn't even have the excuse of a bawling infant in the back of the car!

I would rather a sporty 2 seater but practicality has to happen

Originally posted by ladymuck View PostI was given a Qashqai once as a courtesy car while my 350z was in for service. Comfy enough. Wouldn't buy one though; not my sort of car. It's got room in the back where people can sit down and a boot that still has plenty of space after you've put a couple of Fortnum's carrier bag in it. Madness.

Also Ladbroke Grove is in a 30 limit (street lights and no repeater signs for anything else) and you obviously missed the crossroads and the warning signs. So please don't try and lecture people on bad driving...

You have more visibility, more control and are the one who will be injuring the cyclist/pedestrian so the onus is on you to be aware of dangerous cyclists. In reality if a cyclist does something stupid and you run them over, how are you going to feel? Will you be fine because it wasn't your fault, or will you be traumatised because regardless of fault, you squished a person under your wheels?
