Speeding Survey
Discussion
Some joker posted this to the speeding survey (here).
Thought it was rather lame myself
Thought it was rather lame myself
Driving home, eager to check out a cool Internet driving survey website where people post details of the amazing speeds achieved in their fast cars, their closest shaves with the police, and their disappointment with the scale of their subsequent (draconian) driving bans.
I tried very hard to drive the same as them, but I found myself backing off instead of taking a blind corner at full speed - good job too, because there was a broken down car on what would have been my driving line.
I tried to go more than 50mph in the narrow lanes of the motorway roadworks but the workmen kept smiling and waving at me for not endangering their lives.
I even got up to 31mph in a built up zone before a silly kid on a bike rode straight out in front of me. Would you believe, it was dark and he had no lights on the bike - I blame the parents!
I was so disappointed when I got home, but the cat purred at me and the wife made me a nice cup of tea. I felt glad that I hadn't given my hard earned cash away to the courts, nor had I lost my job through being banned from driving because I was not competent to properly control my vehicle and therefore a danger to other road users and pedestrians.
I know, I haven't any exciting tales to post of derring-do with the throttle or how I outwitted the stupid police.
However, the best thing that happened to me on my way home was I didn't kill anyone.
What they doing posting here?!
Bit of a sad git - obviously missed the point completely. Not many of us speed where it is dangerous, and only hit the gas on safe, NSL roads.
Guess matey will have a nice, safe, cozy life. And get some entertainment out of posting drivel to enthuisiast sites. Probably a T2000 moron.

I fear that his name is probably Ian, he wears sandles and reads the Guardian, and just to top it all off he has a large beard.
We have met on a previous forum where he admitted that he drinks and drives and tells his children about it, yet he goes on and on about speeding and its effects.
What an ar$e

Carl misses the sarcasm obviously
it was outrage at a man called Ian... bl**dy cheek of it.

Quite right too, well done. If the kid rode straight out in front of you then why did his parents not teach him roadcraft before letting him out on the roads? And why oh why did they not instill in him that he should have lights on in the dark? The highway code does apply you know.
However, the best thing that happened to me on my way home was I didn't kill anyone.
Oh I don't know, I'm sure one or two people in the car with you (I'm sure you must car share to be good) probably died of boredom.
I beleive i know who this prat is.
Cant remember where i spotted his name now, but ill have a root around me hardrive and see what i can find.
From what i remember, hes an MP!!!!
A bit of a dick too, as Soulpatch quite rightly points out, he admitted to drink driving, and having his kids tell him off about it.
Ian sommat.....?? Ill go have a look see...

Just looked on the survey for this one but couldn't find it.
Does this mean that PistonHeads are censoring people's contributions and if they don't conform to the typical macho opinioned male driver's viewpoint, then they're posted on this forum for a laugh? So much for the integrity of the survey and the person in charge of this site. You should be ashamed of yourself.
And what's this "His name must be Ian?" How stunted can you get?
For writing some sense, she must be called Jennifer.
Had a great laugh reading the clever responses from all you guys. You must have really big dicks.

Invite him to the next BTaP.
Get him drunk.
Then we tie him up, cover him in treakle, dip him in itching powder and aniseed and leave him in a room with two alsatian dogs.
Oh and while he is busy, sneak into his room and switch on the in-room porno channel so he gets billed for it and has to explain it to his missis and the cat.

don't worry, it must be someone having a giggle... well, I can't take 'em seriously.
I HATE Sunday Drivers. Get in your way, cause accidents because they don't get out in real traffic, and come up with boring lectures about other people speeding. Wish they'd hurry up and die. Actually just hurrying up would be nice, but failing that, the more terminal solution would be preferable.
FYI, Sunday Driver, the Web site owner is very responsible, and promotes safe, good driving techniques, as do the rest of us. In general, it is safe to say we only speed on NSL roads, of good quality & where conditions are safe.
SO kindly do me a favour and stop posting nonsense? just read a few more threads before judging, eh?
(or "engage brain before trap" as me grandma used to say).
