No kidding, I was riding shotgun with my wife driving the other day, on the busiest road in my hometown. She was doing 50 in a 40, putting on lipstick, when her cellphone rang....cars everywhere...she puts down the lipstick and starts fumbling for her purse. 1000 cars in front, beside us, turning into our lane ahead.

Typical outing with my wife behind the wheel. Scares the bejeebers out of me.

At least she's noticed there's a rear view mirror :mrgreen:

UK now, $120 fine and 3 points on the driving licence if caught using a cellphone (other than with a hands free gizmo) while driving. Similar to a speeding offence. If you clock up over 9 points in 3 years you are disqualified from driving for a year :(

Okay guys... here's where I have to put my oar in!! In my 34 years of driving, I have had 0 -- zero -- zed -- accidents. My husband (from Belfast, UK), has had 7 accidents since arriving at my house 10 years ago... he totalled the car in two of them... broke his back in one of them...

Guess who scares the heck out of whom in our family???!!!

Another one of my favorites: "Rather unique"

And how come, when we appoint someone to oversee something, we chastise them if they have an oversight?

Our local weather guys came up with this one: "Micro-blizzard". Gee, I think we used to call that a "whiteout". And "Lake Effect". We used to call that "Snow".

HE WAS PROBABLY TRYING TO GET OUT THE WAY OF THE WOMAN DRIVER :mrgreen: All you guys drive on the wrong side of the road as well :!:

Also, from observation, women don't know what a reverse gear is for. Lot of narrow lanes out our way and you meet the WOMAN DRIVER :!: She's got a 'passing place' right behind her. Guess who has to back up 200 yards to let her past :roll:
