More idiots will be along soon….that’s about 9 this week alown….
LYK surely they will eventually run out of cars or car driving idiots you would think?
I can just imagine your little heart skipping a beat, every time a report of an RTI comes up on here, so you can jump on your keyboard and type your childish comments. Have you nothing else to occupy your day?
And what’s “alown”, when it’s at home?
I have no idea why all you idiots can only complain about my spelling instead of what really matters, and that being the amount of idiots that are coursing mayhem on our roads…
I don’t think my comments are boring when it comes to the amount of deaths, road closures, and inconvenience you lot are causing…
Grow up and smell the coffee, we have a massive problem on this island when it comes to road safety….
Coursing mayhem, would that be alown?
Once again, how on earth, based on the utter rubbish that you write, and constantly spell incorrectly, can you not see it’s you who is the idiot here! You can’t wait to jump on every report of an RTI on here, and repeat the same immature rubbish, time after time. And please use spell check, or are you just too lazy!
LYK, I fully agree. We can and do quite regularly, speculate and comment on the high number of accidents on this small Island. At times, sadly medical emergencies are the cause. The majority of the time, accidents on caused by speeding, drink driving or drug driving which seriously impairs a drivers ability to safely control their vehicle. BUT, as LYK quite rightly states, ‘more idiots will be along shortly’. The general standard of driving on this island is very poor. The basic rules for safe motoring and the requirements for passing a driving test are not being applied.
Fact!
You must have heard the saying; If you met one idiot you’ve met an idiot. If everyone you meet is an idiot you’re the idiot
Just give it up! Are you so dull you can’t think of anything to write?
More idiots who can’t spell will comment soon – it’s alone!
I think you’ll find it’s spelt “alone” … now whos an idiot?
Who’s …… just saying – contraction of who is
Now who looks an idiot, ” ALOWN “.
Well done my man ,keep up the great work,don’t let them grind you down
You can’t park up trees mate
He was probably distracted by a speed van around a bend.
Many motorists seem to need to take a refresher course.
Yes Bill, perhaps this is what’s needed. The Police should recommend a Driver Training Refresher Course. Brilliant idea.
It does seem a particularly heavy week for driver-error incidents in spite of the end of the visitor season- or could it be because of the end of the visitor season? What I would like to know is how the Island fares for these sorts of incidents and accidents compared to the mainland. The ‘facts’ and stats would have to take into account population density and number and length of lanes and minor and main roads to get anything like an accurate picture. As the lady said earlier in the week, could another factor be that other areas would not report minor RTA and one-vehicle mishaps so it looks worse over here? A very good exercise for a staff reporter, ed?
That’s like saying we’ll run out of
pensioers
It would be interesting to know how many youngsters to pensioner ratio and how many medical episodes and why we have to keep reading this crap it seems its the only thing happening on the island. Reading the highway code forget that people don’t even read car handbook which is evident when a pensioner drove into the back of a parked transit van due to sun ha bloody ha
