[quote][i]Originally posted by bubble[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by gtitim[/i] Steve - From what I wrote earlier: [quote][i]Originally posted by gtitim[/i] generally I would warn people if their driving standard was poor - ? [/quote] If you think you can drive along whilst eating a McFlurry or icecream or burger etc and still remain in full control of your vehicle, you are wrong. You may still consider yourself to be safe and in control, but you never know what will happen. Went to a fatal RTC. One vehicle, no passengers, no logical reason for collision. Investigators did their thing. The conclusion was the driver had been eating a bag of chips from his lap and had swerved for something (wildlife etc) lost control, flipped and ended up dead. Had he not been earting, he would likely have reacted better and not be dead. Edited to add - with calendar - most likely same - check logs etc, warn appropriately. however, I am a Response officer, not a traffic officer with targets to meet. [Edited on 20-06-2010 by gtitim] [/quote] i disagree. i can drive along perfeclty fine with a double cheeseburger in my right hand. in fact im in the same amount of control as when i change gear. or when hang hand out of window. how u can assume its dangerous because of eating a burger is crazy. fair enough, you may have been out to a RTA caused by negligence of someone eating chips. that doesnt mean that everyone has the same driving abilities. a copper from around here crashed when on a call out-he must have had the same or similar training as every other copper, so does that mean other coppers are going to crash as well?
