Why you should load the car BEFORE heading to the pub

[Virago]

So maybe Mr Popo wasn't quite clear in what went on (could that ever be the case!!! Surely not)...

...Kat Klebenow responded on ONE News' Facebook page that she was a passenger in the car, and was "appalled" by the "lack of help" given by police.

"Our roof rack snapped in the storm. We pulled over no more than 10 metres ahead of when this damage was done," she wrote on Facebook...

Yes, and it appears that they then tied it on sideways on the one remaining roof-bar.. Nothing like bending the truth themselves, eh? The driver's own post on the TV1 facebook page basically confirms it.

The only thing the popo got wrong was the nationality of the driver - that and the warning only are the only things they're apologising for.

Lets not ticket someone who is an obvious threat to the safety of every road user near by. But lets ticket someone for wafting down a straight road at 110km/h

Cant argue there are lots of halfwits in Ireland and bad drivers etc, about the same number as in New Zealand I would say.

At least in Ireland ... they can claim they're Irish .....

In NZ ... maybe they can claim they're from Auckland ...

[Gremlin]

I suspect the officer is going to have sore knuckles... didn't check the licence? How often do you get asked for your licence when speaking to the police... every time for me...

So does this mean that all the Irish jokes will now be kiwi jokes?

What harm could it do ...

Hes still as dumb as a turnip.... I have driven thousands of kms with kayaks on the roof and NO way would I haul that in poor weather without a bow line attached ... The flare on the bow alone generates significant lift/resistance... Vick and I were slammed by a sudden southerly front a few holidays back on the desert road which snapped a strong tie down on the front bar.... Would have lost the kayaks without the bow and stern secured... Maybe I'm just over anal....

and this prick might breed one day? . . .

Not likely.....
If he gets something the size of a kayak Sideways.....
what are the chances of getting something substantially smaller ths right way up and in....?

Foreigners ... eh ... !!!

I'm in favour of overseas drivers taking some kind of driving test. I couldn't count the number of stupid things on the road that I have witnessed. This includes camper vans holding up massive lines or traffic...

This guy may also prove that some kind of intelligence test is also required...

This has got to save more lives than ticketing people for doing 101km/h. They could charge for the tests to make up the revenue shortage.

Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

I have seen far more stupid shit from locals. What do we do about them?
