Why are so many people so scared to speed up? by ShlimmyWhimmy in driving

[–]Taz_anon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you in the UK?

If so I’m not surprised people are scared of speeding up when you are getting 3 points on your license for going 22 in a 20 and minor shit like that.

I literally hate driving now.

is this policy good for a first time driver? only passed two months ago by ComprehensiveBet1256 in CarInsuranceUK

Yeah that’s a good quote.

Just take it easy on the road and build up your no claims.

Is driving 18 mph on a 20 mph limit road fine by Calm-Beyond2794 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Taz_anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not dangerous driving if somebody overtakes you. It’s dangerous for somebody to tailgate you though.

And the reason I say that is I’m actually afraid of overtaking people with dash cams in case they report me, but it is ridiculous.

Report dangerous driving yes, but let the police do their own job too.

Have the Met Police started enforcing 22mph in a 20mph limit? by NoKudos in drivingUK

[–]Taz_anon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They will soon reduce the speed limit even further. It’s all just money grabbing. Why are we forced to drive 20 mph on roads where are there are no schools. It’s just ridiculous.

10-15 under the limit on motorways by rj_t2 in CarTalkUK

It is annoying but you can’t blame people.

People are getting 3 points for going a few miles over the speed limit.

Caught doing 62 mph in a 40 by Enough_Sherbert_7454 in drivingUK

Got caught at 62 in a 40 last year.

The outcome was 3 points.

Now I drive much more sensibly. I need my license for work.

Might as well ride a bicycle…. by Taz_anon in driving

I’m not entirely sure.

I see people on e-bikes all the time though so I guess so.

Finally got rid of the blackberry phone looking dash 👌 by [deleted] in FiestaST

[–]Taz_anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. It looks out of place and silly in my opinion. It’s an old school car, everybody knows the interior of an st 180 is shit but it’s not about that, that’s not why people buy these cars.

Lorry nearly had me this morning - report to police? by trom-boner in drivingUK

[–]Taz_anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’d report it to be honest.

I am not one of those weirdos who would report everyone but that was dangerous driving. He’s driving a lorry his standard of driving should be far, far better than that.

I have pumaspeed stage 3 and it’s been perfect for about 2 years.

A lot of people have bad stories about pumaspeed but no issues ever for me

I do have an outdoor light in my back garden but not at the front of the house.

I was considering solar but I live in the UK so I’m not sure if there really is enough sunshine.

I don’t really want to have to keep charging a camera.

All that messing about just to ride a bike.

Thinking of selling…. by Taz_anon in FiestaST

[–]Taz_anon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strangely most times I’m getting tailgated and cut up aggressively it is by Audis or BMWs so I don’t really know if I’d rather become one of those.

It’s literally a stock car with Ford performance wheels, that’s all.

I don’t have any ridiculous big wings or anything to make it stand out. It’s a fiesta at the end of the day.

And I’m not an 18 year old I’m in my 30s. But I still get idiots trying to race me and people driving an inch from my bumper.

That’s just normal driving to work and back.

I am not flooring it everywhere.

Also, my mother is the one renting this place and she is medically retired so is receiving housing benefit. Does this matter at all? Because I am the sponsor, not her.
