i agree with this.

After having a drink driver write off one of my cars I have to say I agree with this. If somebody had been in the passenger seat it is likely they would have been killed.

Somebody touched the back of my car and was detained by some builders until the police arrived. The builders were upset because a child was knocked over in that position about 2 years before and he was in hospital for 3 months.
The drunk driver blamed me as I was  pensioner.
The drinks test showed a nil reading for me.

Two years! A long build indeed!


Note - I do agree with a crackdown but fabrication adds nothing.

The builders were working on a different nearby house 2 years before.

Not alway's drink to blame Brian, perhaps your reactions have slowed down or even you were busy preoccupied thinking about your private pension instead.

  May be but the Camara photographed her going through on red. It was fortunate my car was there because she could have gone in to a group of people. My dogs were ok but shook up.

Did you have the chance to give the builders some pension advice?
