Then it would drive on the left of the road, even if foreign. If you look at the architecture and grain elevator I would guess this was clearly taken on the North American prairies. I will examine the possibility of seeing the road sign (on the right of the road) to see if it is a speed sign and if so whether in miles or kms.mrkint wrote:Cars can cross borders

Which is exactly how you should drive a left-hand drive vehicle?!Montreal Wanderer wrote: To get my own back for the Japanese fiasco, this person seems to have a left-hand drive car and be driving on the right side of the road....

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Not if, as Mr. K. suggests, it is a foreign car driving in the UK - I would expect that one to drive on the left. I merely suggest that, contrary to the caption, the basic photograph was not taken in the UK - although the photoshopping, I suppose, could be done anywhere.Bruce Rioja wrote:Which is exactly how you should drive a left-hand drive vehicle?!Montreal Wanderer wrote: To get my own back for the Japanese fiasco, this person seems to have a left-hand drive car and be driving on the right side of the road....

That photo above is clearly Photoshopped. I've seen the real thing and its nothing like that size, look..........Bruce Rioja wrote:UK drivers are warned about the snow, ice and the inevitable Imperial assault on their rebel base.

Sooner or later, and it happened to me last night, your favourite Indian or Chinese take-away is going to present you with a free extra - a long, black hair. Revolting. They are now my ex-favourite Indian take-away!

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
thanks Clappers - fantastic!!
cheered me up this morning!

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Hit a pheasant on the motorway the other day. Nothing I could do about it. Was quite sad at the time - loss of life and all that, but when I got to my destination discovered the bastard bird still sticking out of the giant hole it had ripped in the front bumper
Now got to shop round for a new one or blow my £400 excess on my insurance.

Excact same thing happened to me a few years ago in Holland. I knew it was stuck there though, since it's head flopped onto the bonnet, looking up at me all wistful like.jimbo wrote:Hit a pheasant on the motorway the other day. Nothing I could do about it.

Luckily, I was in a company hire car, so it didn't cost me anything.

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Sadly not. I was on the way to the airport for a few days in Budapest when it happened. It would have been a bit smelly when I got back.Bruce Rioja wrote:I hope you ate it.jimbo wrote:Hit a pheasant on the motorway the other day. Nothing I could do about it.

Ah, fair do's. I've never known how come pheasants have absolutely zero road sense, yet those wily old crows at the side of the motorway never ever get run over.jimbo wrote:Sadly not.

I'm sure I read somewhere that pheasants need grit to help them digest, so they spend a long time on roads where they can get said grit. Or something like that. Don't know if there's any truth in that.Bruce Rioja wrote: Ah, fair do's.
