Classic from the Mrs! Vol 2
Discussion
Clunk click every trip. There was a joke about this at the time, 3 guys in hospital with various injuries. Vicar doing the rounds talking to people, the first two have various limbs in plaster, and both tell a tale of woe, how they were only going 100 yrds down the road so didn't bother with seat belt, and went thru windscreen.
3rd guy has far more serious injuries, vicar asked him if he went thru windscreen, and he says "No, I was just walking down the road eating a peach and someone smashed me in the face with a hammer."
You'll need to be old enough to remember the ad to get the joke.

Why does knowing whether your car is front or rear wheel drive a safety issue when driving at 70mph on the motorway?
In my experience if you hit standing water they handle differently.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VToxPV643AM&fe...
frontwheel drive, you'll understeer then grip then probably spin out.
5th gear did a thing on when you put your new tyres on the car, depending on where you put them and hit standing water can result in different behaviour. I can't find the link though...

I remember when this thread was full of amusing antidotes of things ladies had said
But then wife asks "How do they get the cars off the ferry from France because they drive on the wrong side of the road?"

Depends on how long the patch of water is I suppose. Like most people I've driven through plenty of puddles at a variety of speeds in 4WD, RWD and FWD cars without crashing in a fiery ball of death. I must be some sort of driving god I'd imagine.
The water puts the flames out?AstonZagato said:

I wish they'd bring back those public information films, everyone laughed at them but things like the 3 second rule,

My wife woke me at 4.55 am this morning to ask what that noise was, obviously I couldn't answer her question as prior to her asking it I was asleep.
She either dreamt it or it was the cat, never mind as within 60 seconds she was fast asleep again and I have been awake since. Cheers love!

Yesterday evening, wife was on the phone to her mum who has just been on holiday to France, and was on the ferry waiting to get off. She then does that thing where she recounts the entire conversation to me after the phone call, even though I was sat in the room with her whilst she was on the phone and could pretty much hear everything her mum said as well.
My God, you should know that women ALWAYS do this. Ask a man how something went and he'll tell you where he was, what happened and what the outcome was. That's it.But a woman will tell you every single word that was said by everyone present, all the time she was there, regardless of whether it was relevant or not.
