Good Deed For The Day

[Melton Fox]

Have you done one selfless thing today?

Yesterday I had to slam on my my brakes on the M69 between Hinckley and Leicester northbound, due to a large vessel, possibly a fibre glass pond taking up the whole of the middle lane. In my mirror I could see lots of cars taking similar evasive action.

After a little pursuasion :icon_wink I called 999 and was thanked for my call and they would take recovery action immediately. (I wasn't sure that it justified 999, but was comforted when they told me it was)

I have to confess to being a little annoyed with myself for potentially saving the life of a ****, but in general I have a warm feeling of goodness inside me, just like when you eat Ready Brek on a cold December morning.

To make up for it, today I plan to do **** all for anybody other than myself.

Good grief!!

I had you down as a "Lane Three all the way" type. What were you doing in the middle lane?

You have shattered my image of you!!

 

[Melton Fox]

What were you doing in the middle lane?!

Undertaking the old **** in the fast lane :icon_bigg

 

[bocadillo]

Undertaking the old **** in the fast lane :icon_bigg

Thank God for that - image restored!

Maybe you heard about the cyclist left to die on a dual carriageway story this morning, hence the action you took.

Poor chap was left there for thought to be 3 hours and every car ignored him, even one ran-him over.

Obviously not :icon_roll

But that story is shocking Hazza, beyond belief in fact.

But TBF, before I dish out any sympathy, what are the laws on riding a bike on a dual carriageway?

There's no special laws about cycling on a dual carriageway.

There's no special laws about cycling on a dual carriageway.

From what I can gather, the laws of the road don't apply to cyclists, they can do what they want.

 

[Melton Fox]

There's no special laws about cycling on a dual carriageway.

In which case I'm shocked, it's an extremely dangerous to thing to be allowed to do.

As for the reported behaviour of fellow Human Beings towards this cyclist, unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable!!!

Moss side...most of the motorists didn't want to stop cos they were in untaxed or stolen cars themselves

I'm surprised you didn't pick it up to raise fish in.

I can't advocate such primitive methods of pond construction.

POOR CHAP!!!!!! He is a ****ing cyclist, they are a pain in the arse on the roads, they are worse than caravan users. They pay nothing to be on the road and cause all sorts of problems.

I would have jumped at the chance to run over the twat.



Cyclist and horse riders, shoot the ****ing lot of 'em.

 

[Billyjof]

Don't have a problem with cyclists, I have a problem with dick heads who don't treat someone riding a bike with due care and attention.

Some cyclists are just idiots though.

[Billyjof]

Why is it in London All cyclists wear tights? Never understood that one?

so when they get run over they are easier to pick up off the road.........

My good deed for the day was getting up before the missus and bringing her up a cuppa.

Now it's payback time and I have some real serious expectations of her over the next 48 hours.
