For very, very, very small values of time-wasting. http://www.slowitdown.co.uk/challenge.asp I think this proves that it's completely unsafe to break 30mph limits if you can't look more than 4 car lengths in front of you FFS. So a crap game that proves nothing, is completely pointless to play, very dull and with rubbish graphics. Oh, and it patronises you if you lose. Bet you'll all be raving about this one. -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1, Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, DS#5, COSOC# Suspended, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
In uk.rec.motorcycles, AndrewR amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom: Heh, this is fun! I've already killed 3 by hitting a road cone and now I've just mown down a crossing fula kids! Cool! I can't wait to get back on the rampage.
And since I posted the link I've actually taken the time to pootle along at 28mph and finish the game and ... it patronises you even if you win ... "You were 10 minutes late for work, but at least you didn't kill or maim anybody getting there". Or words to that effect. -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1, Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, DS#5, COSOC# Suspended, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
In ...and that passing a car on the wrong side of the road is a "head-on collision," or that broad-siding a car is a "head-on collision," or that car brakes are made of plasticine.
In uk.rec.motorcycles, Slider amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom: Try driving on the other side of the road
In uk.rec.motorcycles, Grendel amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom: Aye, and my car tends to slow down when you take your foot off the gas.
heh. I just got told "What were you doing? We drive on the left hand side in this country..." Managed to get it up to the ton before I plouged through the zebra crossing, tho.
It was very frustrating trying to get above 70. -- Martin: "For a minute there, you bored me to death." VTR1000 Firestorm TDR250 http://ukrm.net/BIKES/Yamaha/tdr250.html martin dot smith nine zero three at ntlworld dot com
Naah, that was easy. What's really irritating is the speed restrictor fitted to max out at the ton. Anyone know how to derestrict it? -- _______ ..'_/_|_\_'. Ace (brucedotrogers a.t rochedotcom) \`\ | /`/ GSX-R1000K3 `\\ | //' BOTAFOT#3, SbS#2, UKRMMA#13, DFV#8, SKA#2 `\|/` `
I drove at 10 mph and served violently from left to right as if drunk however there were no police officers around to catch me, I also managed to drive at 10 mph just left of the white line without looking (I was typing this) and still managed to only be 10mins late. -- Martin: "For a minute there, you bored me to death."

There you go, that's perfectly safe and if any smart-arsed copper tries to tell you otherwise just point them at the web-site. -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1, Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, DS#5, COSOC# Suspended, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
It's pretty fucking quick up to the ton for such a shite looking car, isn't it? -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1, Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, DS#5, COSOC# Suspended, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
True, but the brakes are fucking appalling. -- _______ ..'_/_|_\_'. Ace (brucedotrogers a.t rochedotcom) \`\ | /`/ GSX-R1000K3 `\\ | //' BOTAFOT#3, SbS#2, UKRMMA#13, DFV#8, SKA#2 `\|/` `
Must be downhill. I like the newspaper at the end. "Driver mows down school children'. It doesn't publish my name, I must have done a hit & run.
If you go just below 70 and sweve onto the wrong side of the road as soon as you see the crossing there's a path through without slowing down. I'm trying to do the whole thing without going below 60 to see what smart-arse comments it gives me at the end. "Well you made it to work on time without killing or maiming anybody, but only because you are an exceptionally skilled driver with huge genitals." -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1, Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, DS#5, COSOC# Suspended, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
In uk.rec.motorcycles, AndrewR amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom: I've spent more time that is healthy on it today. I got down to 4 minutes without going less that 40 but pranged it on the damn crossing. I was tempted to write saying that defective brakes (inspired by Ace) have got to be far more dangerous than travelling at 2mph over the limit.
