"He told police he was late for a first aid course....." - I wonder if he was giving it/taking it or being a part of it?

Re: You have to laugh - surely!

I used to drive 160 miles up and down the M4 to work and back every day. I've seen men shaving (electric shavers), women putting on lipstick (using the rear view mirror), people reading maps (not in a traffic jam, doing 70 mph!).

The scariest one was a women I came alongside trying to steer the car with her elbows whilst lighting a cigarette - and then dropping it into her lap. I am amazed she didn't cause a major pile up.

Re: You have to laugh - surely!

I am surprised that it is still legal to drive while smoking, especially dangerous to light one on the move.

Re: You have to laugh - surely!

I've seen a car bumper sticker that read "IGNORE CAR SWERVING, DRIVER SENDING TEXT MESSAGE!"

Says it all really!
