  • Convictions 18 Feb 2003 (Forum)
    "Nearly everyone has one conviction, or will have by the end of 2003". I don't intend this to sound smug, but I haven't had a conviction in 25 years of driving. Am I really in such a minority? I would add that I regularly drive at 80-85mph on motorways when safe to do so but rarely, in my opinion, drive dangerously. Neither do I drink and drive, drive through red lights, drive uninsured or do any of the other things that get noticed by plod.

  • 2016 Volvo V40 1.6 D drive 19 Jul 2020 (Forum)
    Not in the market for a car, just had the opportunity to drive both this week. Usually just get to drive the Focus. Unfortunately the Volvo was rather disappointing to drive, better just to sit in and listen to the posh Harman Kardon stereo.

  • Arround School Zones Keep Driving Safe 2 Mar 2012 (Forum)
    You should stay in your seat and avoid pushing and shoving. Teen drivers should take extra precautions while driving to school and back. Talking and texting on the cell phone while driving should be strictly prohibited. Any type of earphones should not be used while driving. A very simple and important safety driving tip is to remember to pay full attention.

  • Child of Our Time - driving test 7 Feb 2006 (Forum)
    If anyone else didn't see this is was an excellent example of how it is impossible to drive safely and undertake a detailed thought process at the same time i.e. when trying to drive and use a mobile. A police driving instructor was shown driving through a slalom of cones - carried out perfectly.
  • "Driving other cars" extension 25 Nov 2001 (Forum)
    My dear wife recently bought a Mondeo and we still have her Volvo 340 parked in the drive, taxed and tested. My own insurance policy covers me to drive other cars on a third party only basis and I asked the insurance company if I could drive the 340 under this insurance. I was concerned that they may say that, as it was my wife?
