Focus are lush, drink driving is fopr stupid little twats, really need to assess your life if you get behind a wheel drunk, nealy lost 3 of my mates cos some twat got in his car while drunk and drove into their car.  The drunk died and quite frankly he deserved too.....

Walrus next time you get in a car after having a drink think about a £5 cab home, better than losing your life, think how your mum will feel identifying your burn fucked up body.  Sorry for the rant but for fucks sake grow up.


What you have done in my situation then?  My mate was going into shock as he was losing so much blood - his tooth fell out and went through his chin.

Might sound harsh but have little sympathy for teenager drivers wrapping themselves around a tree, but I do feel for the parents and passengers if they're involved - it's a crap way to die, simply because someone was too fecking stoopid....


This coming from the stupid cunt who races in a car that's practically faling apart.


I own a '53 plate Corsa SXI owned from new, RRP 10.5K.  Hardly falling apart.  I've raced her but I openly admit to being a stupid cunt at times.  I've also driven the poor dear drunk, but I can be a dickhead at times.  I'd never contemplate doing such a thing intentionally, but it was forced upon me - was staying over but friend fell off a 10 ft rope swing and need racing to hospital - 999 refused to answer request as busy and accident not severe enough![/quote]


Where I live the local A+E had just been closed when this incident happened, and the next nearest A+E found itself inundated and unable to cope.  Ambulance response time would have likely been over an hour, and we were in a fairly remote forest.

But yes, with my friend bleeding profusely, going into shock, I should have waited for the bus....   :shock:

The bus would have been a better option, quite frankly its my opinion that never drink drive, biggest pet hate in life......

Let me make this simple for you.

YOU WERE DRUNK.
YOU ENDANGERED NOT ONLY YOUR LIFE, BUT YOUR MATE'S LIFE AS WELL AS ANYONE UNFORTUNATE ENOUGH TO BE IN THE VICINITY OF YOUR CAR WHILST BEING DRIVEN BY A DRINK DRIVER.

Stop making excuses for what you did, you fucking idiot.

Thanks Smiley

I'm not gonna convince you people, but simply put, i'm a gayer
Had you been in the situation there was very little options.  I was drunk but not hammered, but would never condone that in a normal situation.  I was bloody scared because my friend was going spastic, literally  :|  

I'm a fucking angel on the roads compared to a lot of people of my agegroup, especially around here.

getting back on topic,

i still have my first car, had it 3 years now i think. an M reg fiesta which cost me £1350.

it's utter shit. it's got a fault but the fault cannot be identified until the car packs up competely, i've had about 5 different mechanics/garages/friends look at it and they all say the same. i wouldn't mind so much if it was consistently shit, but it could break down after 5mins or 5 hours of driving, at 5mph or 90mph.

i need to get down to cornwall after glasto and i'll be chancing it in my car, may need to sleep in it if i break down as it needs a bit of rest after breakage.

How exactly does it packup?  If you give me exact symptoms I can always pass on info to a mate of mine who's granddad is a genius Ford mechanic.

(The mate drives a Y reg (that's a 22 yr old) Mark 2(?) Ford Escort and keeps it healthy and running on the road, so he knows what he's doing!!)

it packs up by juddering, then slowing to a stop. then when you turn the key it's as though no petrol is getting through as it won't start and sounds 'dry'. sometimes all it takes is a swift ignition movement, or a few pumps on the gas, but once it took 12 hours to work again.

an aa man thought it was the thing that feeds the fuel in. the garage couldn't say it was definitely that and didn't want to charge me (for once) £300 for a part which might not even fix the problem. the genius bloke near my nan told me it woulnd't be possible to pin it down as, with modern cars, there is so much computer stuff etc. that it could be more or less anything. another mechanic said a £300 service would fix it, but it didn't.
