    As if all the silly cows talking on their mobiles while driving weren't
    dangerous enough...

    Be fair. At least she wasn't giving him a blowjob.

    In
    It's not the ones talking on their mobiles that worry me it's the increasing
    number of twats I see texting while driving!

    Overtaken quite a few people and noticed they're looking down at their
    phones and texting.

    Texting drivers should be arrested and their car and license confiscated on
    the spot in my opinion. Either that or charged with something similar to
    attempted murder in case of an accident, but then it's already too late.
    First thing that came to mind was execution but I'm being humane today
    (Sharia anyone?...).

    Having said that, the last bloody moron I encountered texting-in-motion was
    a moped rider. No helmet either, but that's still the norm around here.
    Still, not half as dangerous as a blind 2-tonner.

    The more I ride the more I convince myself that the second piece of gear a
    motorcyclist should be carrying (after the helmet) is a crowbar or baseball
    bat.

    It might be best if you never travel with me when I'm driving then.

  10. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Andy Bonwick
    It would be interesting to get Black Mike's opinion. I expect it'd be
    something like:

    Not much of a chance as we're probably several countries away from each
    other anyway, but if you're texting while you're driving and you're not in
    the middle of the Australian outback or the Gobi desert, I think that's
    mighty irresponsible. Particularly since I understand you're implying that
    it's not unusual for you to do so.

    Apparently the wuss slowed down to around 120mph when texting through
    the clear window of his tank bag on the way to meet us in Limoges a
    coupla years back.

    You'll just end up waving it around all over the shop to get a signal
    and ploughing into the nearest biker. I don't think you've thought it
    through.

    I think it'd be me rolling cigarettes while I steer with my knees
    that'd be the killer blow.

  20. Pah, rolling fags is kids play, it is sticking the skins together that
    is where the real skill starts.
