Your argument is so full of hatred and prejudice you really need to see a counsellor before someone in the lower classes, middle classes, upper classes, or is an old hag in your opinion, takes physical exception to your demonstrable lack of societal tolerance. .
Er, but then they would be candidates for counselling regarding lack of self-worth and esteem ...wouldn't they? I mean sticks and stones...? And,,,um... his intolerance is towards those associated with smoking, not society in general? Just saying.fromkentgent said:
Get yourself a dashcam for the rear, send the evidence to the police a dedicated website and they often process the item in 30 mins used to take many hours of work before but laws and processes changed. I have been advised by someone with knwoldge of the process that up to 95% of the clowns driving admit guilt out of court and accept a fine/points etc unless offence was very dangerous they go to court and at times they are the cars not registered.
These new cams on M1 and M6 and some on the M25 can now tack your mug shot and if you are holding a phone/etc, tail gating.

Possibly. The other possibility is that he is from Kent, a county where the average IQ only hits double digits thanks to all the tourists on the M20 passing through.

Just remember the old joke story of the pub conversation between a smoker, and a non smoker, where the non smoker says to the smoker. You smoke, the by product of which is smoke, which gets into my lungs and makes my clothes smell bad.
I drink and eat, the by products of which are p*ss and sh*t. So if you have no problem with letting your smoke affect my health and my clothes , I am sure you will have no problem with me p*ssing and sh*tting all over you?

The irony being everyone realised what sweaty, piss stinking places pubs were once smoking was banned.I drink and eat, the by products of which are p*ss and sh*t.

I tried to catch up with the inbred but traffic lights went in the inbreds favour.
Theoretically, had you managed to catch up with 'inbred', what might you have done next?Edited by fromkentgent on Saturday 30th November 13:18
Laughable.
I think smokers have been persecuted quite a lot, go back 25 years and the whole country tended to stink of fag smoke, its rare to smell it now, used to tune it out but if say I am walking the dog nowadays I will cross over if someone is smoking as its not a nice smell, a whiff of cigar is really nice though. In my first job in about 88, people used to smoke at their desks, only for the first year or so then it stopped but must have been awful for decades before.
You see them huddled in manky little huts, smoking away in the cold or outside entrances to places which is a sad sight and cant be much fun after all those years chain smoking in the warm. I was pleased as a non smoker when the ban came in as our local used to be a fug but what I did notice was after the ban, all I could smell was the gents not sure what is worse.
Amazes me how few people I know still smoke, used to be a group at work that would troop out every hour or so but they all gave up, even the bloke who spent more time in the smoking hut than at his desk converted to vapes, the rest gave up one by one.
Even more amazing is the demographic, smoking tends to be skewed to the poorer end of society, I just checked the prices thinking they must be a tenner a pack now, £12.50 ! wow, if you smoke a pack a day, that's over four and a half grand at retail prices, yet everywhere I go its always the cleaning staff that tend to be stood smoking, I couldn't run to that easily, without losing something else and I expect I earn more than the cleaning staff, how the hell do folk do it ?
I do sympathise, having to light a paper tube full of smelly brown leaves to stop you feeling bad because you haven't lit a tube of smell brown leaves recently must be a chore, now you have to traipse off to a designated place, outside, under cover but permeated with the stench and fag ends. It makes your clothes smell and if I have ever had one, usually when drunk, the next day if I catch a whiff of my hand it makes me heave.
I cant say I have had issues with smoking drivers, not knowingly, the odd fag butt carelessly thrown out but have seen numerous fast food ejections and a pint pot one time, some people are just peasants, and some peasants are smokers.
Then there are the health issues, knocking fifty and being a smidge overweight, enjoying beer and crap food when I get the chance, I have enough things that will finish me off so adding that in as well is a step too far. I believe erectile dysfunction is a bigger risk for male smokers, don't take that function for granted chaps !
As for the cost to the NHS, suspect most have paid their way in taxes and it is maybe the non smokers that hang on in there until a very old age, needing care and attention that are more costly, all the clean living boomers power walking, smearing Benecol over everything in a bid to be immortal, yet, more likely just getting to 85/90 and then needing looking after for years that will cost the NHS more. My Dad had an uncle who smoked for years, he died in the early seventies, he had a lung removed due to smoking related issues, but carried on smoking, it transpires you can manage on one lung, but not zero lungs.
I can understand older folk smoking, it seemed to be a rule you had to smoke when I was a kid in the seventies and eighties, most peoples parents smoked, my mum did so fags were a fact of life, what I cant understand is seeing younger folk who smoke now, with all the health advice and the cost yet still think its a good idea to smoke, doesn't even have that slightly cool edge now, or maybe it does, just think younger smokers must be a bit dim where older ones are stuck with it to an extent.
I worked for a bloke with one arm, he smoked and drove, it was a car accident that cost him his arm, but not the smoking, it was changing a tape, left the road, hit a tree and his arm came off. It didn't however stop him smoking and driving, in a manual car, the work rate behind the wheel was a sight to behold. imagine losing your arm as you fancied listening to Prefab Sprout instead of the Joshua Tree ? (not sure of the actual tapes)
So, some solidarity with smokers, just hope it eventually dwindles away.

J4ACKO, half-decent post mate.
Your mate driving and smoking with one arm.
Cars can drive themselves these days yet it still does not make smoking and trying to drive right.
Not referring to jacko!!
Others throwing insults at me. I'm not a hard man on the net and real life
so carry on until you get a fag thrown from a car/van/lorry land through your Corsa
open window and on you old woman's legs then you may change you mind,

Sorry, I don't I have taken the liberties and clarified the post.I'm so angry tonight that I could slap these stinkers that try to drive whilst smoking
and not indicate, throw out their rubbish out of the car. Having said that I would not to
go within 15 feet of them as I may need a shower afterwards.
