    It should be legal to drive over skateboarders.



    (More seriously: how many of us expect slower drivers to get out of the way and let us pass? Why should those skaters get in the way of the 4x4 like that? How many times have people written on KB to the resident cops and said "target slow drivers, not just the speeders". (And yes, the 4x4 should have just waited and not passed in a place without visibility, if the biker had been smacked it would have been the 4x4's fault, no matter how annoying the skaters were. I just don't think the skaters were totally blameless.))

    Bro, they were filming the skateboarders, they were probably friends. So now it's the skateboarder's fault if an idiot is allowed to drive a fucken jeep

    Bro, read what I wrote, don't read half of it then imagine something else; I didn't say it was the skateboarders "fault". Did you miss this bit? "if the biker had been smacked it would have been the 4x4's fault".

    (Though, if the 4x4 was filming the skateboarders then all of them, 4x4 driver AND the skaters ought to be heavily stepped on.)

    rider & the 4x4 looked like it was filming the skaters, so driver & skaters should be charged,

    Sensitive type are you. It was a straight forward, no insult implied, question to clarify your point of view. Hardly a call to arms but at least now we know who the dickhead is.

    Ahmed should be incarcerated for attempted murder and banned for life from driving anything apart from a camel and in that case, only off road.

    If someone can get away with putting his own and other people's lives in grave danger like that, how is it that I get pinged for a few ks above the limit where this is perfectly safe, given the conditions?
