Bad Weather Driving

Here we are again – snow! So what do we do?

Clear the smallest possible area of windscreen to peer through. Leave the side and rear windows full of snow (‘cos we don’t go sideways or backwards too often). Don’t put your lights on so that people are forced to look for you. And of course ingore the fact that snow is slippy and ice more so. Keep the speed up, leave braking to the last moment and then protest your innocence when you hit something.

Is my copy of the Highway Code different from everyone elses?

Big Cars Undriveable?

I’m not if it’s true but the bigger the car the more problems people seem to having driving it. It’s as though the speedo’s are innacurate, the indicators only work intermittently and the headlights are set on maximum dazzle.

There I am minding my own business doing thirty in a thirty zone when up comes this Audi trying to get past. It’s probably my own fault for driving a Skoda. It’s reliable, comfortable, economical, does seventy on the Motorway. What more do I want?
