Just a quick reminder for those that have mopeds/bikes/scooters etc....Ice is bad!

My eldest lad Jed was on the way to work at 6am and as he turned into work hit the ice and boof!!!....on the deck,scratched the scooter and ripped his Rockport jacket(!! :evil: )...covered in grazes and bruises but he will live!!

BE CAREFUL!! :evil:

scooters scare the hell out of me while driving.

They cut you up/drive on the wrong side of the road/ignore all traffic/sound like lawn mowers/if theres a queue they just go straight through it.. I'd like them to queue 2 damnit!

I think
a) you should not be able to drive one at 16 - then less people would get them, they'd get cars
b) have a better test than the current CBT one, as I've yet to find anyone fail.. I know people that couldnt even drive round in a circle and kept falling off, and they still passed.

the only saving grace is it might make him more careful

they have no fear at his age my son was terrible when he first passed his test
