Yeah.

Even the police are getting it wrong though.

Last night my GF was coming home from work at about 9pm.

Anyone who lives around High Wycombe/Loudwater might know of Treadaway Hill. Anyway, she was driving down it at about 10 mph and doing a good job of keeping on the road when a police car came flying down, passed her by crossing the solid white line down the middle of the road. At the bottom of the hill is a mini roundabout with the options of a left or a right turn.

The police car/driver decided to take the straight on option at the round about which involved a verge and a fence.

SLOW DOWN OUT THERE

Yep I know the road, used to be a Mitsubushi dealer on the left hand side as you go up, I bet that was as dodgy as Pheasant Drive in Downley this afternoon, going down it was ok if you were to hold 1st gear, but I decided not to go up at coming home so went up Plomer Hill instead in second with just enough throttle avoiding wheelspin & getting stuck.

Today's pet hate is the oxes driving around with 4 inches of frozen snow on their roof that lauches itself at the car behind as soon as they go over 50

It takes a broom and two minutes of your life to sweep it off. It's not rocket science.

Normally I clear the roof and back but leave the bonnet because the engine heat clears that in a few minutes.

5 miles down the road last week it wasn't clearing. It then struck me that this is a 911 and brain had not been engaged!

Ho hum. Habits.
