Some people don't like being told!!!

Some people don't like being told when they are driving against regulations. I have recently found it to be mainly idiot mothers on the school run.

Sometimes I wish a few more traffic wardens would hang around the school roads to give them a kick up the backside.

Not only do they put their own children at risk they put mine in danger as well. At this rate I would ban all mobile calls in cars even hands free if it would make them pay attention.

[cassa333]

Sorry, just realised it wasn't a question. But ha ho it got it off my chest.

[ummmm]

I think even hands free should be banned as well.

[cassa333]

Too true.

Idiot mothersw in knackered old cars on their mobile phone don't like being told they shouldn't be driving and talking on a hands free.

Perhaps their children will learn that their mother is an idiot? At the very least I hope they don't turn out like her.

I sympathise with you, cassa333. If drivers observed regulations life on the road would be more pleasant for everybody. I once heard it said that everyone who drives has a reason for doing what they do, even though for the person who's behind them it's difficult to fathom! I have a notoriously short fuse, but I keep it (more or less) under control when I'm driving, because I now think, "Well, what does it matter? In a few minutes I won't see him/her again, and it isn't my job, anyway, to enforce the rules of the road." Count to ten (or however many it takes)!

Sorry again I ment shouldn't be talking on a hand held... not hands free

[ummmm]

I just can't see the importance of phone calls. If my phones rings while I'm driving I wait until I get to a red light and check who it is. If it's important I'll wait till I can park the car and ring them back....

It's not hard..

[bookbinder]

A phone call is usually more important for the caller than for the person who is being called, therefore there is no rush to answer the phone.

She was driving through the school at the time!!!

I wish I had taken her reg number if only to give her a bit of a fright. I could at least of complained to the school office as a starting point.

Answer to the people using mobiles if caught 1 months ban, 2nd offence, 3 Months ban, regards the plonkers that do not, know not the Motorway Rules, read the FKING highway code on Motorways.

You terrible person, surely you realise that the very difficult act of procreation means the world revolves around them and their sprogs? They don't need to "dock" with the school gates, their child could walk the 50m m or so, they might even be able to walk to school with Mumsy.
Before we ban hands free, can we please ban in-car smoking, it's surely dangerous to have a burning twig in one hand, you can't do that handsfree can you?

I turn my phone OFF whenever I get in to the car.
I grew up with no home telephone, the same as my friends and neighbours at the time. Pointless using the phone box as nobody I knew had a phone.
I don't feel the urge to be constantly in contact with all and sundry. I don't need to tell people I'm on the bus, and I don't need to consult with people about the type of apple to buy when I'm out shopping.
If I were so important I had to be in constant contact, I could afford to have a chauffeur.
