Now that is cool, but not practical, youd have to look at your nob to see what gear youre in and youd have to do that anyway if you didnt have it.

Surely I should know what gear the car is in - seeing as I put it there...  :?:

Come on, where would you be without someone having to say it, even if you do not mean it, it has to be said

Women drivers, White van men, old fogies and little Asian women driving the huge cars who can barley see over the stearing wheel with a number of dents in the car are the stereo types you have to mention when talking about bad driving

Even thing though it tends to be the loony blokes thinking they can drive causing most accidents.

Following on with the puns ... my philosophy of "if you cant find it - grind it" has worked wonders for me to date.
