We hear countless stories of outrageous driving incidents, but I have yet to find a single one that can beat the prize I witnessed in TV about a dozen years ago:

A woman driving a golf cart with one hand—while holding an infant against her shoulder with her other hand…

Top that one!

Jousting anyone ?
 

i don't understand a country that's basis for left side driving is based on having your right hand sword available for defense?
What sayeth thee sir dollar² ?

A guy called me an a--hole and took off in a golf cart at 15 miles an hour. I still wonder if he realized he was running away at 15 miles an hour.

My alibi would then be the same as yours is.

That isn't giving me much hope, considering I have no desire to sell them or be forced to.

probably just following the GPS

Was anyone really shamed? Do we know who actually did these things?

Oh, and someone flipped a car yesterday evening @ Odell Circle...

I hope they're alright...

Yep. Was driving directly at me. Thank God I could move over to the other lane.

Perfectly logical to drive on the left.
When carts and carriages were horse drawn, the drivers all over the world sat on the right and on top when driving.
This enabled the whip to pass along the outside of the carriage when in use to stir up the donkeys, oxen, mules or horses.
If coach drivers sat on left, whip would have passed down centre of coach, possibly taking out the eye of any passenger.
When cars came along we placed the steering wheel on the right, as this was the logical place, as all drivers were quite at home in that seat.
Your car designers for some obscure reason (probably a left handed ex whip cracker) placed the steering wheel on the left, which is the reason you and many other nation all drive on the wrong side of the road!
As for the sword, you try drawing it in a hurry, if you have a load of passengers to you right hand side. Logic!!:icon_wink:

Privy council decree
 

sir dollar²
as you may know by royal decree there is no more jousting, horse and buggy riding, save hrh, god save the queen, ( from her relatives,) whips, dueling, racking, drawn and quartering, knights of the round table, merlin or saving my favorite for last hogwarts and its denizens.
So as sherlock would say, is it not , " elementary my dear sir 💵² that l o g ic calls for putting away foolish things.
Btw how's the irish sea border talks going. Heard there's a banger war coming. More trench war in the offing? Hip hip.

I've seen that too. My favorite is the grandparents/parents allowing the unlicensed teen, 13-14 ish, drive the carts on the roads and squares with ZERO knowledge about driving rules. I get they're allowed to operate the cart but make sure they understand some simple rules of the road first.

Being defensive is being reactive. I'm from the other school: Do unto others before they have a chance to do unto you.

If you don't like the way I drive, get off the sidewalk.

It's the same reason we Murikans got the notion that measuring by the 12s instead of the 10s would be better somehow.

That didn't go over so well. Most people still need a yardstick to figure out that 2.5 feet = 30 inches.

Whilst I understand the metric measuring and weighing that has been foistered on us by our former European partners, I still work in yards feet and inches and Farenheit.
I also am not advers to using rods and chains in measurements when I want to confuse the grandchildren when they get smart with me, and Stones, not pounds, when Americans ask my weight.
As for Boxing Day, don't ask!

PS. 30 pence is Half a Crown, or two and six, or half a dollar. That is a throwback to when the GBP was @ $4 to the £1
Funny old world!
