The problem with 50 mph!
Your lives my be at risk
WARNING THIS POST CONTAINS LANGUAGE OF AN ADULT NATURE!
OK, I do believe in the whole reduce your carbon foot print thing and due to excessive price of oil I have been driving at 50 mph in order to save on fuel. It actually works I can get up to 60 miles extra if I do this, so it save me quite a bit.
However, in saying this I feel that I have increased my chances of dying in a road accident (this says alot considering I also drive a motorcycle). Why is this you ask? Because every arsehole and their mother drives at 50 mph. Let me take a moment and define arsehole; an arsehole, in the driving sense, is someone that can’t make decisions or are hesitant to when driving on the road. This particular type of ‘arsehole’ is the one that indicates for about 25 seconds before moving into the lane by which time the ‘arsehole’ has missed their opportunity to move into the lane.
What this arsehole does not realize is the impact they have on all of the other traffic. For instance because they are hesitating the bus that is in the lane which they want to get into has become frustrated and try to get in behind the arsehole, this frustration has caused the bus driver to neglect his mirrors and almost plow into the car coming up behind the arsehole. (True story)
To summerise, although driving at 50 mph is good for your pocket and the environment it puts your life in danger.
