That's your fault. If you drove like most people appear to and did
not use your rear view mirrors, you wouldn't notice them.

Are you serious Colin?


Actually, I wonder if this at the root of so many drivers being
totally unaware of what is happening behind them - they looked in the
mirror once, didn't like what they saw and never looked again.

That happened to me once. I gave a lift to a woman, she sat in the back
seat. She was so ugly, that I dared not look in the mirror twice.


A woman once ran into the back of my vehicle - hers was a Ford Cortina,
mine was a Volvo 240 (Pre-Ford). She lunched her car but did no damage
to the Volvo. Very pretty woman but when she opened her mouth she spoke
like Janet Street-Porter.

Use your imagination Marvin!

Life's bad enough as it is - why invent any more of it.
