General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Passed my driving test in April 1958, also passed heavy goods class one also advanced motorist,and passed a rolls royce chauffeurs course. As for the highway code, today what you need driving the highways and byeways of this country is a 50 ton tank to be safe from some of the morons that have been let loose in motor cars.They are mostly young kids who think they know how to drive fast and don't bother about other road users.I live on a estate and come 4-30 onwards the roads around Hawkley Hall resembles Brands Hatch. Is it any wonder when you pick up a newspaper the headlines say horrific crash six dead in two car pile up you can put money on it some of them are below the age of twenty one.And its not only the lads, some of the young girl drivers are as bad. And empress says you drive on auto pilot, then if you do your heading for a pile up,think about what you are doing constantly when you are behind the wheel, and keep your eyes on the other road users and you wont go far wrong.
