I have a 25 mile commute home - A316 - M3 - A322 - work on which I play Texting Bingo, the rules are simple, one point for spotting an idiot sending a text whilst driving, quater of a point for spotting a trainee idiot texting whilst sitting static in traffic (often becomes a full point as the traffic starts to move and they continue sending that oh so important text) My record this year, on the way home, 4.5 points - can anyone beat that?
How many points for a car full of kids, ie at least 6 in a normal saloon whilst the driver steers with his knees eating cornflakes? Or for the lady in the fast lane at 90 using hair straighteners whilst looking in the mirror on the sun visor about a car length from the car in front of her? Or the lorry driver reading the sun whilst driving? The list goes on. Even when driving a car I never take my eyes off the road for an instant. Because experience has taught me that is when shit happens. I'm no angel and I am certainly not perfect but i do take driving seriously. Ive only had one car crash and that wasnt my fault. Ive had a few bike off's only one of them was 50/50 the rest the other fecker. However I fell off my scooter loadsa times as a yoof. But usually on my own whilst being silly with mates. They were my fault. But falling off a scoot riding over a cabbage field or along the beach at Margate is one thing. Driving on the MWay texting is another.
Must confess to playing "cock twat knob" bingo whilst traveling the highways. This consists of "Mercs Beemers and Audis respectively. Generally it's a draw.
