Default Dukes of Hazard.

Thank goodness no one was badly injured. A lucky escape for all involved.

Can't think where he had to be going.

At 75yrs myself, I'm hard pushed find an excuse to have a little ride around in January. But I live a large city.

Kev.

little about the other people involved and almost nothing about what happened.
I thought I heard that he pulled out in front of a car at a T junction. If this is true will he be done for driving without due care and attention. We he give up driving? But then my sister was hit a few days ago by someone younger, should they too give up driving

seems the other people don't count

Yep these days I think they would - they did breathalyse him at the scene, as they should with anyone involved in a collision.

Its not driver error at fault, its the sunshine at fault.

Thankfully no one was seriously injured.

No messing about, the Duke has already taken delivery of a new Land Rover today, this one might have stabilisers, or at least a sun-visor.

I see the local authority has reduced the speed limit on the road from 60 to 50 already.

Now how many times have folk been seriously injured or killed on our roads and nothing has happened?

Boils my p1ss that something happens to one of the royal family and everyone jumps through hoops.
