Correct Roland it does reflect badly on owners and some who just have a company car and run it into the ground without thinking about well, their own safety.

The incredible thing is for people of our age Andy that was the biggest story in the world. Very jealous that you have been back before the internet!

completely agree that there not enough police around, no incentive for actually caring about the roadworthiness of your car.

It’s terrible how drivers who can “afford” a new car don’t look after them. Especially, worrying is the state of their tyres.

I think equally worrying is the lack of road traffic police type people who should be out there keeping the roads safe from morons who can't do the basics of vehicle safety.
