DFT ANNOUNCES PUBLIC DRIVING STANDARDS RECOGNITION SCHEME
Due to the decreasing quality of driving in England the Department for Transport has devised a scheme to identify poor drivers whilst giving good drivers the opportunity to recognise them whilst on the highway.
Thus from the middle of May 2006 those drivers who are found to be driving badly which includes:
· overtaking in dangerous places
· tailgating
· braking sharply
· speeding in residential areas
· failing to indicate at junctions
· parking on footpaths
· performing U turns inappropriately in busy high streets
· taking up more than one lane on multi-lane highways
· anything of a furry nature hanging from a rear-view mirror
· lowered suspension on family sized car
· driving with a stereo system on maximum volume with windows wound down
will be issued with flags coloured white and bearing a red cross, signifying their inability to drive correctly.
These flags must be clipped to a door of the car and be visible to all other drivers and pedestrians.
IMPORTANT: Those drivers who have shown particularly poor driving skills will have to display two flags, one on each side of their vehicle, to indicate their greater lack of skill and general lower intelligence to the general public.
Please circulate this to as many other motorists as you can so that all driver's and pedestrians become aware of this initiative and the meaning of the flags.

hahaha
this isnt strictly on topic but:
england flags on cars piss me off. it also pisses me off that 95% of the nation think that england has nothing to be proud of but their football team, and that the only time they ever show any pride towards their country is during the world cup. its just a game!! you can enjoy it without taking it way too seriously.
i hate all the fuss over football..
rant over! |
