I loaded the link off Youtube & did a virus check.

It would have been far more appropriate to contact me first because it will be a "mark" against me & now if I want to I cannot delete this thread.

Thanks for owning up...shame you didn't think first :-|

I appreciated your putting the link up BK and have c n p'd it and forwarded it on to my 3 children. Everyone on here should have the opportunity to look at it and make their own judgment, imo.

Sorry did not know about the Black Mark - but at least I was honest. If Phil finds no problems it will be put back.

I too have anti virus etc., which check my system several times a day. But this was the first time something happened.

Just a bit worried that was all.

Wend - I did not Report because of the content (not bothered either way) I reported because I was concerned that there was a virus somewhere in the Link either on here or on FB.

Wend Report 28 Jan 2013 19:56

I agree PP, I know it's probably on FB. Haven't seen it on there myself, but it's a warning to us all from you not to click on it there, as are MANY things on FB we shouldn't click on - I'm VERY wary these days, hope others are too.

PP if you were concerned you could have contacted me & talked to me about it first. I help on 3 other sites giving tech support so think I know what i'm talking about. The link I had up was safe so if you had a virus on your computer it did not come from that link. You have now rendered this thread worthless & I can't even delete it. :-|

BK, could you PM me the link? I normally travel the motorways daily and see lots of stupid driving - I'd like to see, and be able to comment, on what you have highlighted.

Many tks,

Mr D (whose not worried about virus infection....got good and 'as you type' protection :-D )

I've just watched the video thanks (if that's the correct word?)

Can't believe some of the comments made on there!! "it's horrific but not reality" .....fgs can they not use their imaginations and be more aware of how precious life is!!.......I get soo furious when I see drivers on their mobiles.

I think there should be a total ban on using mobiles while driving and that also includes hand-free sets!

TheBlackKnight

TheBlackKnight Report 29 Jan 2013 15:47

This was aimed at younger drivers but drivers of all ages drive cars on the road, get on the phone & talk to another person maybe start to have a laugh & the next thing that person knows if he/she is lucky is all hell has broken out. Yes ban drivers from using mobile phones while driving.

Glad GR reinstated the OP.

We see so many idiots on their phones whilst driving plus reading maps spread across the steering wheel, eating and drinking etc.,

All of the above mean the driver is not in full control of their vehicle otherwise known as a lethal weapon.
