• Am I Victor Meldrew? 2 Apr 2003 (Forum)
  My neighbour has recently started parking about 6 inches to a foot on my drive which is connected to his drive. This is so he has enough room to park his other car on his drive without having to move the first out of the way. I can still get both of my cars on my drive but have to park them
• Learning to drive in other countries 22 Jan 2003 (Forum)
  I just remembered a conversation with relatives from NZ at the weekend. Their 16 yo is learning to drive (or is he 15? Can't remember). Anywya, he can legally have passed his test and be driving at 16. However, there were some rules for the first year after the test which I thought were
• Test Drives 11 Jan 2003 (Forum)
  about an hour I started to get back ache, after 90 minutes I was so uncomfortable I had to stop. For this reason I'm very keen to get a decent 2 hour test drive before commiting myself, but both Ford and VW are only willing to offer me a glorified spin round the block. Has anyone got any advice about
• Buying a left hand drive car over here to drive ov 28 Mar 2001 (Forum)
  We are about to move to France and I will be looking to buy a couple of local cars to replace our UK ones. However, it occured to me that it might be worthwhile to buy a used left-hand drive car in the UK as I understand they tend to be much cheaper. We could then import them into France. I have
• DVLA disqualification error 30 Apr 2009 (Forum)
  Hi, during the 90s i built up a enormous driving record, ranging from no insurance to driving whilst disqualified (no drink driving though), i just drove cars with no regard for the law. In 1998 i ended up with a driving ban of 15 years disqualification. I am now near 40 years old, settled down

• Erratic driving. 17 Jan 2020 (Forum)
  With all the anti older drivers attitude most of us who are senior drivers take our driving seriously and practise good habits. I saw a guy with superb car control the other day, he was weaving in and out and avoiding other cars by inches at high speed, tailgating 'til the offending car got out

• Bad Driving - Overtaking past road furniture in carriageway 29 May 2016 (Forum)
  For the 3rd time in the past few months  I have had cars  and 1 van overtake me and pass the refuge in the middle in the opposing  carriageway (fortunately empty at the time) in various places on 3 different occasions. This must go down as dangerous driving, surely!
• Driving position 8 Oct 2013 (Forum)
  Which current small cars give a high driving position. I know the large MPV's do but I want something smaller. I have been considering the Venga/ix20, which, although I haven't driven, presume they do have a highish position. I am just interested in what other options are out

  my sister has had her claim rejected because she was not wearing her glasses when driving, even though her sight is good and she can read the numberplate at the correct distance because she had not noticed the caveat on her driving licence that says she must wear glasses when driving.

  I've just seen this http://uk.cars.yahoo.com/10122010/36/bus-driver-shrugs-snowy-hill-0.html Is this skillful driving, or was it the bus that made it look easy? The wheels did slip in places
• VW Polo - HJ driving one handed 22 Aug 2010 (Forum)
  As an avid reader of HJ's road tests and Telegraph column I enjoyed the polo 1.2TSI video. I was a little surprised though to see him drive the whole time one handed with his left hand presumably resting on the gear lever. Not good practice surely ?
• Driving test examiner sues for whiplash 19 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  A driving examiner is suing for damages after claiming he was hurt by the worst learner driver he has ever seen. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/edinburgh_and_east/7895353.stm?lss A current case so I guess no comments directly about it until the case is resolved.
