    Quite so. When I am dictator of this Banana Republic they will be made illegal!
    Horses are a form of transport, so they should be fucking ridden and not towed.

    Careful what you wish for...the floats are towed faster than a horse can gallop AND they contain the ploppy bits.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    There is absolutely no need for them to use roads since they are "offroad capable" at all times!

    Just splitting hairs here but the road code is just a guide. Read the opening paragraph of this page
    "There must be a one-to-one correspondence between left and right parentheses, with each left parenthesis to the left of its corresponding right parenthesis."

    I tend to find angry people on the road are stupid and look like idiots anyway. There's no need for it, road rage is weak.

    Yup! I can understand the way people do get angry if they're under stress with work or something, but while I did get angry I stopped short of acting it out in a vehicle, safety was always first. My accident was a sheer fluke of circumstance though, and the SCU apportioned no blame to me or my vehicle which was well up to scratch.

    When you see people tailgating, weaving around and shaking their fists, it doesn't look good and doesn't win them any friends, for sure.

    I've never had a problem with road rage, or anger for that matter. I'm either a pansy or have some sort of self control.
    You're accident was a well and proper one though...
