Subject: Disabled Driver?

On the way home I hung back from a car swerving and moving erratically. It mounted the pavement at one point and only stopped after knocking a cyclist off their bike (yes!)

I helped the cyclist and spoke to the driver, a woman, that told me that I could not criticise her driving as she was in a wheelchair. I said it had nothing to do with that, you were driving like a c@*t. She said that I only said that because she was disabled, so I said that if she has a licence, and is allowed on the road it should make no difference to the fact that she had indeed driven like a c@*t. She asked for my details - I gave her a business card - as she wanted to sue for my discriminatory remarks. The cyclist took her details and photographed the vehicle position and damage to make a claim against her via the usual channels. He (cyclist) was a lawyer and had witnessed my conversation with the woman and had said I had not said anything discriminatory, just insulting.

Lucky I didn't call her a retarded c@*t.


Oh, she hit a parked car as she drove off too.

if that happend here... you'll be in hospital. Womens driver here are like monkeys with knifes...

Brilliant work jaize!

nice contribution

Nah! I was safe, she couldn't get out the car so unless she was handy with the shuriken and had a working knowledge of ninjitsu...

I am very much looking forward to her day in court!

:-D nice story.

an ex of mine was leaving a car park once, when a car reversed into the side of her, once, and then twice, and then kept banging into the same spot of her car. She jumped out of the car to remonstrate with the driver, who got out, and then started to do sign language. The driver was deaf, and couldn't hear the collision of her reversing car into my exes car. At this point, the husband of the driver got out, and they started signing each other ! Both profoundly deaf. She managed to get their details on the back of the owners manual of her car, and then went about claiming off their insurance. She then got a letter back from their carer, saying that she was discriminating against them because they were deaf !

So, yeah, *disabled people eh ?

Pfffft.

* Not all.

I once crashed into a parked car when on my bicycle about 15 years ago, they were the next door neighbours.

Got away with it completely, they thought it was done in a car park.

First gay and now disabled, Gibby? It is all me, me, me with you isn't it! ;-)

You must be the only person in the world who is more accident-prone than me.

Was it your car he hit?

Don't be daft, I didn't have a car 15 years ago. Nobody in Norfolk or Suffolk had a car 15 years ago, must have been a tourist or a visiting royal on a shooting party.

Now that would be accident prone! To get buckshot by the Duke of Edinburgh. Unlucky.


Less so if it was Dick Cheney...

Thats what happens if you beat a republican at poker. Or even if you look at em funny. Or have some oil.

About 10 years ago my car was written off while parked by a woman who blacks out, she had previusly driven into somebodies garden. I wrote to the DVLA about her, she clearly had health issues and should never have been allowed behind a wheel! I never heard back, but all the locals had apparently been complaining about her. Bloody worrying what they allow on the roads at times.
