Where did he say anything about driving as fast as possible? He may wish
to run over your head driving very, very slowly.

I think it is outrageous of nully to say he'd run over Duhg's head.
That would be far too quick and painless ...

But nully didn't exclude running over the rest of him beforehand.

But Duhggie old chap, you repeatedly *approve* of people taking the law
into their own hands! I personally dont think that xenophobic
scrounging whiny old bastards like you should be allowed to live, but
unfortunately the police dont permit despatching you to your
long-overdue grave. No matter, time is on my side and you'll soon be
poisoning the soil somewhere!

Given the location and time this doesn't surprise me.

Wail snap looks like Princess Road just north of Alexandra Park, these days
not a good place to stop in the wee small hours without some serious
back-up.

I've taken the "cross" to uk.transport off as I don't want to start the
plainly unfeeling tosspots up again.
But, aren't some of them utterly brain dead halfwits?
A view confirmed every day by the stupid behaviour I see every day I drive
or cycle.

No, it describes the behaviour of one person.

But it does speak volumes about the mentality of one person who would
use an incident like this to condemn millions of motorists, of whom few,
if any, would condone such actions!

The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands,
and when it gets old and shabby a woman can dispose of it and get a new one.
