I just find it very funny.

So it would be funny if you your family got hurt or killed because of that kinda driving? Real funny man...

I'm not for a second condoning what the driver does. I'm laughing at the pointless reaction. Are you saying that  because I don't swear at bad drivers I'm putting my family at risk.

"to whoever drives like this I say..." does not mean I actually say this, out loud, every time I see this happen. It's just a turn of phrase and should not be taken literally.
 

The only real recourse I have for something like this is to do what I do already, which is have my wife try to take down the plates and rider description and direction, and call the cops.

Now that makes complete sense. It's the one time when having a cell phone in the car helps.

No one is saying that, unless you are twisting words.  You are, however, laughing at Phil after making an equally pointless jab at his parenting.

Can you not be a d!#$ for once?

Important to note also that I'm not the one making the call

Damn drivers talking on cell phones, Off With Their Heads's

Good for you, seriously.

And now to make sure we're all still friends:

"No he can't , all he is doing is rolling on the gas & weaving thur traffic, sorry but thats not "skill" "

True enough. I guess I meant he can ride the way he does and still be alive while not having killed anyone else. Seems like I read that he is in(or went to) jail though...

From what I know about Sweden, that would not surprise me.

Good, now both y'all (ccarson and phil) shut up!  Don't get all "baby on board".  You're still assuming the risks of the road by driving with your child in the car just like everyone else is.  I hate that high horse that people should treat you extra special because you have a child in the car.  NO!  Driving is a dangerous activity.  Accept it!  40,000 people die in car accidents a year, alone, in the US.  And ccarslon...come on dude, chill the f*ck out, man.  Not everyone is uber conservative and believes the earth is 6,000 years old.  Come to reality, dude.  And......lock.

[Slowbrew]

Wow!  It went from laughing about "satanic vacuum cleaners" to a nasty exchange about dangerous driving. 

I'm glad we've all learned to relax, not worry and have a home brew.  We all need to vent now and then, I hope you guys feel better but it really doesn't help you or the rest of us in the long run.

Everyone have a safe week, if you're in the US try to stay cool.

Why is it that people jump in on a good, civil, discussion and try and turn it into anger? I've always wondered if these are the same people that yell "jump" to potential suicide jumpers. 

Hey Phil, I think we should go have a beer.

[punatic]

Yeah, whatever.

I still think Volvo police cars are funny as hell.  It's like 21st century Keystone Kops.

[denny]

I think this has gotten far enough off track....
