You need to think outside of the box...

There is no such thing as a road fatality. When has a road ever killed someone? They are fatal car accidents.

I reckon they have already met their target.

I think that's the only way they'll achieve it, tbh.

No fog lights when it is actually foggy, yet so many seem to have them on when it's a bright sunny day.

:confused:

many GCC spec cars don't have fog lights. Mine doesn't - which is just stupid.

I used to work for Basildon Development Corporation (shudder). A resident threw himself off the top of the new multi-storey car park; his family sued the Corporation for failing to design the car park to prevent anyone doing this. Privately we agreed that if anyone was to be sued it was the department which designed the pavement.

Passed a nasty accident on SZR this morning. It involved a bus, truck and several cars and caused a northbound tailback from the Safa Park exit to Mall of the Emirates. Does anybody know anything about what happened?
