NDORS Speed Awareness Course.

Actually....I only called you an idiot if you are advocating speeding. A crime that breaks the law and puts everyone's life in danger...not least children.

So....are you the idiot? You certainly are talking like one?

why should you be trusted with a firearm if you can't be trusted to stick to the rules of driving that are there to keep us all safe?

I am only responsible for what I say. Not for what you understand.

even more evidence that you are an unsuitable firearms holder...after all, it's your responsibility and no one else's to ensure you understand the rules and safety properly......which you clearly don't or simply choose not too!

Either way...I am becoming more comfortable with brandishing you the idiot.

Lol. This is too easy. Keep it coming. Its a slow evening here in the Alps. Go on. Say more.

Just look out for the trip up question if you are with Admiral when renewing.

Also phone them up and complain about the renewal cost, I started with them last year at a reasonable cost for 3 cars, they sent me the renewal cost and I phoned them and had £200 taken of imediately, but I am checking with other companies as it seems to be you get the best deal in the first year, then they think they have got you and the price goes up,,,,,,,insurance rip off

sorry if you are speeding you should get the points and the fine
spend a couple of nights in A&E and see the damage, you WONT speed

It is the same with everything Ray, not just car insurance. I always shop around when I renew anything, in order to get the most competitive (not necessarily the cheapest) quote.

As an example, earlier this year I had Kwikfit telephone me inviting me to renew my breakdown cover for the princely sum of 'only' £80. I declined. I went onto a comparison web site and got the same cover for only £29 - with Kwikfit.

To get back to Frenchieboys OP, Its a brave person who recons they will never be done for speeding because a moments inattention and it can happen to anyone is all it takes. For anyone that thinks speed is not an issue of safety, look at it like this, it takes the average motorist .7 (point 7) of a second to recognise a hazard and hit the brake peddle,thats not to stop, but to start braking, at 30 mph in that .7 of second you travel about 40 feet two car lengths and a bit, at 40 its 50 feet and at 70 its 100 feet just in reaction time. That's all assuming you were not changing a CD or looking in the mirror. With speed the stopping distance of course depends on a huge variety of factors,brake pad and disc condition, vehicle weight, tyre wear, once a tyre has less than 3mm of tread its its performance drops off and the prevailing road conditions.
I have never been to a crash where they were going to slowly.
Your mind is like a parachute its no use unless its open.
I agree with Frenchieboy and if you find yourself in the situation of being offered such a course take it.
We are all sensitive about our driving but driver training is always a positive thing to be embraced, your good habits get reinforced and anything learned is a bonus.

Course mirror signal mirror signal speed gear mirror signal horn acceleration. is my driving plan. But then I am old fashioned. The more modern Road Craft plan has five points.

Keep safe.

Well put Tom! Let's face it, so many of us think we are the best driver in the world but it only takes a split second and slight lapse of concentration to disprove that thought! - And that's when you are driving within the speed limits!
