Dangerous When Hot
Dont laugh but it looks to me like the good weather is going to show its face (at last) in the UK. Well be able to lower the roofs of our sexy sports cars or, if you dont go in for two-seaters, wind down a window or two.
However, one word of warning, the hot weather, for some unknown reason, has been known to bring out the worst in people, proved the other day by the nice man who spat (yes thats spat), into my wifes open-topped car as revenge for some minor traffic infringement that only he could see from the window of his PSV.
OK, being stuck in an expensive tin can for a couple of hours is not the most comfortable of experiences but really, theres no excuse for the kind of bad behaviour we witnessed. Not only is it stupid and in the case above unhealthy, it is also dangerous.
A moment of hesitation, a second of lost attention and before you know it, theres a major accident. If you take the idiot above, he drove off at a ridiculous speed, tailgating the vehicle in front who must have wondered what was going on. And not only that, our spitting friend was in a frenzy, not the safest of conditions to be in when driving on busy roads.
So, if and when the hot stuff arrives, stay calm, get plenty of fresh air, remember you are not the only person driving on our clogged roads, and above all, resist the urge to spit at the car in front.
