We had "polite" horse riders..... now "polite" Vans ?
Discussion
I can kind of understand the "polite" horsey people wanting drivers to take notice and increase their safety etc....
Just had the misfortune of driving behind a total bell-end driving a Focus RS-powered Transit Connect done up like a police van with included area crest and battenberg markings, with POLITE in large letters over it.
Blatantly making itself look like a cop van.
Normally I wouldn't mind and laugh it off, but the guy was driving like an absolute throbber soft brake testing a Vivaro van behind him (I was behind the vivaro) and then thundering off like an idiot. I don't know if vivaro was a "friend" and they were having a laugh but FFS its rush hour people don't need idiots on the roads acting like idiots thats what a track is for!
I know there is probably nothing that can be done but I needed to rant

Yep, as much as people like to say they are asking others to be polite, the only reason it is done is because from a quick glance, it would be assumed to be a police car.
The horse riders got slapped down for it, they wouldn't make one in different, less policey designs with "respect" on them, which would be just as good if the cover story was true.

I think the BiB might be very interested - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeuJ_6skbF4 - did you get the VRM?
