    Nope. If you don't let them learn how to manage risk growing up when the consequences are moderate they end up as adults fucking absolutely everything up when the consequences are lethal.

    I do wonder what the actual results for this over coddling is, weather they've actually saved anyone.
    Sure there's probably a couple people they've managed to save via it [retards] but overall has it changed anything? Most people were intelligent enough in the 1st place to see the spinny blade or hot fire & decide for themselves not to touch... the rest deserve what they get really.
    There's also a chance that like the 'hit me I'm here' vest that goes largely ignored nowadays due to it's over use that all this new shit will end up going the same way & end more detrimental to H&S

    Again I'm talking the over-protective nanning & not basic/needed H&S before anyone goes on about "back in the mining days" or "before OSH" etc etc

    It's appearances that matter.

    My administration has been labelling me a criminal for decades without there being a single victim. And the cunts still take my taxes.

    Rational Anarchist.

    “A rational anarchist believes that concepts such as ‘state’ and ‘society’ and ‘government’ have no existence save as physically exemplified in the acts of self-responsible individuals. He believes that it is impossible to shift blame, share blame, distribute blame…as blame, guilt, responsibility are matters taking place inside human beings singly and nowhere else. But being rational, he knows that not all individuals hold his evaluations, so he tries to live perfectly in an imperfect world…aware that effort will be less than perfect yet undismayed by self-knowledge of self-failure.”


    Congratulations.

    The same engineering shop owner who let me use his gear, told me that at least one local logging outfit has been told that every bugger using a chainsaw must have a spotter.
    I reckoned that was a good opening for me, i can stand around watching with the best - and shout "NO" as loud as anyone....

THEY toot and flash I continue on gradually slowing down to 110... they drop way back

    FUCK WAS THAT ABOUT


    EDIT:

I stoped at a intersection further up he pulled up behind me, ginga was fuming now so out I got and we had words... why the fuck did you do that... answer I was going slow cos I had my old mum with me (so he did, said hi to the pasanger) then said so I have no issue with that but what the fucken hell did you plant boot? he said "huh no I didnt"

    Must be related to the horse float towing muppet dawdling at 70-75 on a four lane. Only when I pulled into the fast lane in my lorry did the pace crank up to about 95-100. Ok, sweet I thought. Onto the two lane and the pace drops back to 70-75 again. By this stage a few cars are between us, I can just see the collective aggro going pear shaped, so sit well back. Funnily enough the horse float pilot got to talk to a man in a blue uniform half an hour or so later... I wonder who reported this suspected drunk driver haha....?

    Yeah, get that a lot on our straight roads D. Best thing I've done since moving out here is change to a petrol vehicle from the diesel van...I can out drag the bloody cocky's in diesels from say 85k to 120 which cuts my exposure time nicely.

    Just about the slowest way to get from A to B?

    Drive a cop car, it seems to suck all the energy out of any car on front.

    C'mon people, 92kph ain't the speed limit

    yes, but when was the last time your gang enforced "failing to keep left" "failing to give way" or "impeding traffic"?

    No? Didnt think so.
