Word.

As I age I'm getting so fucking fed up with idiots like this on the road. Loud exhausts, pop and bang maps, drifting, donuts. Keep it for the track.

Most evenings at the mo I'm having to take my daughter out for a drive in my wife's car to get her to sleep, and I always do the same loop up to Judy Dench's house and back. 5 minutes or so each way. Every evening without fail I will encounter Operation Snap worthy driving (that I do regularly submit) because I'm so fed up with the lot of them.

Agreed - there's a absolute tool who lives about 5 or 6 doors down who has an Audi S3 and he each morning, he leaves his house and hammers it to Redline, bounces off it, pop, band, fizz. EVERY FUCKING MORNING

Then he hits 40 to 50 every day on his way home. He's an utter twat

Never got to the bottom of these - if someone drives through an obviously flooded road - does the insurer not cover it or must there be a road closed sign?
Some of these always seem like they’re too stupid to be reasonable and can be borderline fraud.
How about not having a sig at all?

Would insurance ever pay out for this sort of thing ??

Say your cambelt fails and your engine blows up - can you claim on your insurance for the cost of the repairs ?

Can confirm you can indeed claim for catestrophic engine failure from stupidly driving through flood water.
