Haggis,

The major problem is that regardless of which side you are looking from, it is normally the bad that are remembered. The good are taken for granted (although there is sometimes recognition of a good deed from each side).

No, I am the only good driver - everyone else is an idiot :P

Which is precisely what my father-in-law said about driving and he was a Green Line bus driver, I still have all his safe driving certificates from London Transport. He said that we should drive as if every other road user is an idiot. In other words expect the unexpected. He learnt in the Army during the war.

All the best, Peter

2 Volvos (At the moment) 2 Motorbikes, 2 Race Motorbikes, 1 Moped.
Nowt wrong with Cars or bikes imho!

My best mate from school was killed whilst on his motorbike by a 740 Estate. The driver 'did wonder what the bump was' as she drove across the junction one early morning. It was my mate's motorcycle.

There are mongs and morons in and on all forms of Transport, just like there are those who have done advanced driving and riding courses in/on all forms of Transport.

I'll echo Haggis V40's sentiments.
