Saltire Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Anything that contributes to stopping people drink driving is worthwhile. I hear they are thinking about reducing the drink drive limit in the UK to come in line with Europe, which would mean 1 drink could put you over the limit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananaman Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Anything that contributes to stopping people drink driving is worthwhile. Hear hear Saltire. But I do have to put this in - you are one hypocritical cock keyboarder - what weird kick do you get out of goading people like you do? Something I didn't want to post and probably shouldn't have done but heyho. The deed is done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bananaman Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Anything that contributes to stopping people drink driving is worthwhile. I was agreeing with what you said, I just wondered what kick Keyboarder gets out of making a thread nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grant Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 That confused me to Bananaman, now i understand, keyboarder enjoys winding people up, apart from this one character flaw, he may be a very nice boy or girl. I wouldn't put any money on it myself though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambon Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Don't suppose you could get hold of those stats could you ? Would make interesting reading I remember seeing a list of most common accidents coming into casualty and statistically, staying at home on your day off was one of the most dangerous things to do I just had a look but cannot locate it. It was a survey done by the IOM government over an 11 year period from 1994-2004 (I think) of all crashes and fatalities on Manx roads, and the causes behind them. It was used as a pre-cursor to the last national speed limit campaign that back fired. The report actually shows some interesting information about top speeds over the mountain, where crashes happen, the ages of the people, types of vehicle, etc. I wish I could find it because it really was an eye opener. It really exposed the young, inexperienced driver as being the worst offender. It actually changed my mind and I am now against a national speed limit because it is not the problem and will not change anything. I am for raising the age at which you can take a car test to 18. Start to learn at 16 by all means under the control of an instructor or supervisor, but no test or driving on your own until 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amadeus Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 I don't think these are the ones you mean, but they're from last year. Stats about fatal accidents, etc, compiled by Dudley Butt and distributed at the time when the debate was raging: FatalAccidentsExcel_1_1_.xls FatalAccidentsWord_1_.doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cret Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I just wondered what kick Keyboarder gets out of making a thread nasty. I think most people here wonder the same thing, but no-one's supplied a good theory yet that I'm aware of. Perhaps there'll be a break from hostilities over the festive period. Peace on earth & all that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxamillion Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 You forgot your lols You may find the subject of road fatalities funny - I don't. Agreed. Too many killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cret Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 You forgot your lols You may find the subject of road fatalities funny - I don't. Agreed. Too many killed. I agree 100% and I hope that's not directed towards me. If it is, please re-read the thread to see what I actually meant instead of jumping to an incorrect conclusion based on Keyboarder's usual 'stirring' attempts.
