What a dickish thing to do.

Easy!

Just wish the police would if acted so swiftly with the CCTV evidence of Mrs Flashs I phone being nicked in a hotel......lazy cunts did nothing.

Not so bad you can replace it with a Galaxy S3 on the insurance

Easy money. though to be fair they deserve it for being thick twats.

Meh, I bet you're all a bunch of saints on the road eh?

Come on fella, you know that is wrong. Driving on the pavement..! It's laziness. Turn around and follow the diversion. Easy.

I'm no saint when driving, but there is no way I'd mount pavement to avoid a road block. It's not fucking hard to find a different route that avoids Victoria Hill.

But what if your satnav is telling you to go that way?

A little bit of common sense surely comes into play, If my sat nav told me to do a u-turn on a motorway because I missed my exit, I wouldn't do it. Besides don't sat nav re-route you?

soapy tit wank at the car who follows the pedestrain.think about few drivers will be getting a knock on the door.

My comment was meant to be tongue in cheek.

Apologies, I just mis-read your comment.

This. I'd drive on the kerb like this, completely harmless in my opinion.

Heathens.

It's not on the kerb though, it's on the whole pavement. Is it harmless when there are clearly pedestrians on the path?

Of course. It's not like anyone's taking a chance with their lives. The cars aren't doing 50mph and it's not like drivers have never encountered a pedestrian before or are incapable of seeing them.

Besides on this video it's one bloke and the way I've heard some people talking about it, you'd think he was lucky to escape with his life. Just put up a bigger barrier.

Blimey, first all the righteousness about speed limits then this. This site's seriously turning into twitchingnetcurtains.com

Did you see all those people get run over?! Shit.

I blame GTA.

Im not saying its right but its trivial compared to some of the issues going on right now.

Driving on the pavement is illegal, whether pedestrians are there or not, whether 1 is affected or 100 makes no difference.

The attitude of "it's ok, no-one got hurt" is a shit one quite frankly.

Car drivers maybe looking out for pedestrians as they are on the pedestrian route but pedestrians won't be looking out for cars. If a car was to hit a pedestrian there's only one winner so why heighten the risk of doing it, oh yeah it's because they're fucking lazy dicks.

Having lived in the Swindon area for 40 years, when I saw the subject title my first thought was "Who's she ?"  :no:

Dead right here...unfortunately, there are many lazy dicks who assume that being behind a wheel  gives them some sort of authority over the rest of us....you can see it in the number of people who flout the no driving and mobile phone use laws.

Sure I went out with a Victoria Hill once.

 :hmmm:

You sure your not thinking/ hoping of Fanny Hill  :)

Did she have a brother called Benny?
