Police drivers and sneezing

[RDE]

I have heard on a few occasions that Police drivers have to learn to sneeze with their eyes open. This sounds like boocks. Am I correct?

[Santa Claws]

Very much so.

Your eyes would fall out.

Its impossible but having said that when I am driving and I feelthe tickle of a sneeze coming on I asses the road quickly and try to make sure I can follow a straight trajectory and that there's nothing immediately in front to be concerned about.
If there is I slow a little and make sure I consciously maintain the steering till the sneeze is over.

try it on a bike, cause you have to add - sneeze downwards so it doesnt cover the visor & thats if your not wearing your neckmuff over your mouth so you can taste it for hours.

It's completely true.

And our heads go all the way to the top of those hats too.

Are you sure those neck-warmer things are called THAT?!
(Not surprised you could taste it for hours.)

[The assessor]

Apparently there is a system whereby if you push your tongue up to the roof of your mouth just before you sneeze, it should go away!!

Never tried it yet, dont want to lose my eyeballs!

They must be big hats then.

Sorry, Reg.

Best wishes all,
Dave.

ETA: OK, some other guys had the same kind of thought first.

One of my worst nightmares on the bike. I think in look like a horror film scence to the other drivers and pedestrians.

In the car I keep a bar towel in the door pocket which is not always for keeping the window clean of mist.

I heard they had to go to special sessions where the CPS get to beat them over the head with a hammer until it's flat!
