If I’ve offered assistance and it had been turned down, I’d just fk her off. Let her suffer the consequences.

If she was drunk and having trouble pulling out from a parking bay would you say the same thing?

Slightly different as being drunk in charge of a vehicle is illegal, you would be well within your right to remove the keys and call the police, you couldn't do the same for an under inflated tyre.

Having a tyre not so inflated as to make it fit for the use to which the motor vehicle is being put is also illegal.

Why is removing keys from a drunk driver any different? Unless you think it's not dangerous to drive kids around on a 6psi tyre?

The police will be on it like a shot if drunk and everyone in the vicinity will back you up, do it to someone with an under inflated tyre and I bet you'll be on the receiving end of police attention and loads of abuse at the school gate.

Haha, there’s always someone who has to post the most extreme example they can think of to try and debunk someone’s point, as if drink driving is comparable to doing the school run with a half inflated tyre!

I bet you’re the sort of person who if you asked a pregnant woman if she’d prefers have a boy or a girl would reply back to her after she said she’d prefer a girl: ‘oh, so I suppose that means you want to murder all baby boys then’.

If ever she says "Mama" call the police, she's probably just murdered a guy.

What's a 'mom'?

Not as bad as when people say/write 'mam' or 'mammy'.

Makes me cringe everytime!

Here in the North East, they are very commonly used.

In fact, i probably cringe when people say mum or mummy!

You say "friendship group". You clearly can't be trusted. I work in central Birmingham surrounded by Brummies and YamYams and most of them use "mom".

Well, I live in a village south of Birmingham and work in the wider west mids area and haven’t heard it from any local friends and colleagues before, including yams. That’s not to say it doesn’t happen, just I’ve never heard it.

It seems odd to me that a casual observation is grounds to consider someone fundamentally untrustworthy, but I guess this is Pistonheads.

I can't believe you lot? Don't you know its 'mother'?

That's a bit mean to call a baby "it".

the anecdata from this thread would appear to back up that premise, assuming no children have died in the vehicle recently...

Is that like a dice roll?

Or a gender role?

Do they? All of the native Brums in my friendship group say mum.

My mate is from Solihull and says mom.

OP fk her. Let her get a blowout. You’ve offered. She probably thinks you want to shaft her and this is your chat up line.

[Hoofy]

Not reading every post. If she doesn't get it sorted, then the side wall will be damaged and could result in a blow out. Suggest she sticks to 10mph just to be safe if she is too busy to get it sorted out.

She's an idiot and deserves the repair bill - let her get on with it. Good for you for offering though.

Btw, its "Mum".
