A mate of mine was one of the first on the scene and he said it was horrific, won't go into details but it knocked him for six.

I know that feeling

This explains why I got a speeding fine the other week from a mobile camera.... 82mph.  

I'd plead my innocence, but I was relieved to see they'd caught me in that direction....

I'm a cock now, was a cock at 21 and a cock at 17.  The best solution is a device I've been testing - telematics.  But not the blackbox that fits in the car, but via an app on your smartfone.  This can penalise people who break the speed limit, fail to anticipate and hard cornering.  It can also be used to impose a curfew.

The mileage would need to reconciled with the car mind to ensure that the app was always in use whilst driving....

They sorted out their own DIY issues for one thing...

While I see the general point of not wanting smartphones and computers to run your life, this is a debate about the use of cars which are themselves "devices".

Cars have onboard computers that can adjust braking etc etc. but ultimately it comes down to the driver to be in control.

Before mobile phones, I used to use the phone at home or a call box....before computers, I'd send letters by post rather than e-mail...read books, rather than google...and talk to people at the match or in the pub, rather than go on a forum. Life was bearable.

The number of cars on UK roads has doubled since the invention of the mobile phone.

Mobile phones obviously transmitting some form of 'MUST OWN CAR' disease to people. Only logical explanation.
