Re: Caravans
 

As I have said before the problem is not caravans, but unskilled or uneducated drivers, ( with or without caravans ;) ), I used to my tow my caravan throughout the UK and France on all kinds of roads and was always able to keep to the upper speed limit without any problem. On rural roads you are more likely to be held up by an agricultural vehicle which cannot in any way match the speeds I could maintain. One thing I would like to see curtailed is JCB's driving round at rush hour.

All caravan owners (except static caravans) will burn in hell.

You have been warned.

* Hopes Smegs is not about * :D

I cant agree with that... A sensible driver poses no risk to other road users and the coupling systems that are used now are many times better than the old ones.

My father in law takes his 6 birth van out nearly every month all over the uk and he has never had or caused an accident in over 20 years !

Re: Caravans
 

OK I'll re-phrase that.

All caravan owners will be slightly singed in hell

All drivers that refuse to overtake caravans thereby causing the massive tailbacks will forever roast in dantes inferno.

Re: Caravans

Yep :)

Re: Caravans
 

if we had roads half a mile wide then maybe , i saw summat similar to this in york a while ago , he was right f@cked up trying to get it round a corner , it must have took him 10 goes :D :D :D

Re: Caravans
 

pfft what's the point in paying $600,000 for one of those... cheaper to fly first class and stay in 5* hotels or buy a big country house... :erm:

the day i pay $600,000 for a glorified bus is the day i need shooting...

Re: Caravans
 

You rent it.

Re: Caravans
 

would still look daft over here, you would be better off buying a double decker bus from red ken for 600 quid and doing it up, like cliff richard...

could have an entire cinema on the top deck, never mind a 68" projection tv ;)

[edit] do double decker buses exist over the pond?

Re: Caravans
 

No. We put the "top" part "behind" the bus. It is better for folks in wheel chairs.

Re: Caravans
 

ahem, thats better than all caravan owners can burn in hell , but i do have to say my dad has never had a problem hes being doing this sort of thing since i was like 5 years old and never caused an accident and he is always sensible :)

Re: Caravans
 

eww not bendy buses? :eek:

we have those in leeds, they are horrible... feels like you are getting left behind when it goes round a corner if you are sitting at the back...

plus, they cant cope with our proper road system very well, and double deckers hold more ;)

our double deckers are wheelchair friendly too you know, just means they cant go up stairs...

Re: Caravans
 

oh and back on the topic of caravans...

personally i think the drivers should have to take some kind of advanced driving course like people who tow loads do...

...or do they do that already, and i am behind the times? :dunce:
