Charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they are not in a fitting condition to do so.
7.

Support the families of accident victims.
8.

Bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.
9.

On the road, protect the more vulnerable party.
10.

Feel responsible toward others.




So now you don't have any excuses:p

No 9 - the liberating feeling of forgiveness. That means the victims forgiving the guilty. No mention about the guilty being punished or making good in some way. Usual crap.

Maybe they did a study and found Christians to be the worst drivers or something. Can't be any other reason for such stupidity.

Edit* Maybe if they spent more time finding the bit in the bible that forbids condoms the world might be a better place. (when they
can't find it maybe they will lift the ban on them)

Oh my God,

Excellent, mad as badgers!

Mirror, signal, sign of the cross, manouevre.

Pray whilst in your car and pop into BP for a quick bit of spiritual comfort

Do they give more instruction? I would love to know how to "charitably convince some drunk not to drive their car home from an all night binge":ohmy: And what the hell does "uprightness" mean? English isn't the guy's first language, is it:D

I do sort of have a story to tell that sort of might confirm that God exists, but I'm a bit embarrassed to tell it. If I tell it you will either not believe me or think I'm the barking one.

Ipom's 10 commandments of driving

1.

You shall not kill.....too often
2.

The road shall be for you a means of communion between people and not of mortal harm.....Try the finger if talking fails. Communion is usually better in church on Sunday, but if you're out and about, go for it.
3.

Courtesy, uprightness and prudence will help you deal with unforeseen events.... Always address the policeman as 'sir'. Sit up so you can see over the wheel. If Prudence isn't available, her sister Gloria can be called upon to help.
4.

Be charitable and help your neighbour in need, especially victims of accidents... Give money... first to us, and we'll pass it on.
5.

Cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and an occasion of sin.... So no penis extensions and sex in the back of the car is definitely out.
6.

Charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they are not in a fitting condition to do so. ... ie, smack 'em one.
7.

Support the families of accident victims.... under the arm at the funeral is always helpful.
8.

Bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.... ie - so they can kill each other.
9.

On the road, protect the more vulnerable party.... put your husband in the childseat.
10.

Feel responsible toward others.... But put the church first. We take donations.
