Re last few posts...
Of course I've driven before, I had a Metro when I was 13 I used to hare up and down the field in
It had its down sides though. I spent the first few lessons basically unlearning all the rubbish I had picked up from racing round cones etc.
I'm not planning on getting a car for now, far too expensive and the uni I'm aiming for doesn't allow student in university housing to own cars as the city is congested enough as it is. I think I'll get a scooter though, get some no-clains-bonus.
Its not all bad though, I'm in my mums Peugeot 306 for now, which I've just done alot of work on to get it through its MoT (new brakes, tyres, arbs) and I know, should I need it, it will stop bloody quick!*
As far as dui-ing goes, lets not even look there, I avoid drinking anyway, I'm not going to stop now!
*n.b. the brakes were getting well heated just today, someone in a Focus inc. bodykits and a headsize exhaust pulled out cms in front of me, I just had chance to swerve out his way and he proceeded to follow me for the next 600m before overtaking me at well over 100km/h round the outside of a corner! But its ok, I know what I did wrong, I forgot to take my L plates off.
