There were a total of 6 people killed over the weekend in Northern Ireland. It seems like every Monday all you hear about is the number of people who have died over the weekend. This number is up to 44 this year for Northern Ireland alone.
Im not saying we must all drive like Grannies, just concentrate on what your doing and think before you do anything stupid.

Good call Phil. Its the obvious but people won't listen. Yesterday I saw a Nova overtake some cars along a B road - didn't have enough power and nearly hit someone head on. 10 seconds later he did it again

A lot of people have lost their lives recently. Please think before you do something stupid - it doesnt make you cool and it's not worth losing your's or someone else's life for

I see some people being stupid, really gets to me. Some people I know, recently passed their test thinking their car is something it isn't, over taking when there really isn't space or a need for it.

I admit I get frustrated when sat behind someone slow but I only over take if I can see well ahead of me, I know my car really hasn't got the grunt to over take easily so I am wary of it.

yeah makarus, hate it when people try to overtake and they haven't the power to do it safely.

Was in a m8's van at the weekend and he was overtaking everthing, but it had no power at all, was kinda sitting level with stuff, beating em by 4mph or something daft.
I was bricking it!

I know of soo many people who have passed their test and reckon they know everything about driving. When really you only stop learning to drive the day you stop driving. Young lads who fly in their 1.2's (no offence) and dont know what their limitations are soon wise up once they've had a crash or 2, well most that is.

I think if you took a few of these guys onto a private test track and put them in a few awkward situations, they would soon see how inexperienced they are.
