Don't tell Scroobie.

[shorty943]

Checking out DW-TV, the other day. It appears that some in the EU are crazier than Scroobie. News report of an idea to fit external, yes, external air-bags to vehicles for pedestrian protection. Next it will be a man with a red flag shouting --Warning crazed motorist following-- just like when pappy learned to drive.

Shorty. - getting more cynical by the day -

[Frenchie]

The trouble is that vehicles sold here will eventually have to be EU compliant. Thay are also talking about making all passenger vehicles have to have low slung, sloping fronts to protect pedestrians, and that will include 4wds. The days of the tradiationally shaped 4wd are nearly over. :(

[shorty943]

They will never, pry my cold dead hands from my Series Landy, never do you hear me, never.

Luv's yus awl

Shorty.

[shorty943]

Nah! I got a series model.

[Mud_Bogger6]

I'll be gettin one soon (I hope)

[Quiggers]

Sheer brilliance!!!

This obviously means airbag dispensers mounted on the front of the car.

SO when a car hits a pedestrian, the bag inflates at three thousand feet per second, catapulting the hapless bipedal into the next suburb....

and of course, add the speed of the car and its mass to the equation...

and the deployment of the bag(s)...

if the first impact doesn't do you in, your tip into a low earth orbit may be your last sight of the planet, before final (airbagless) impact...

this'd make a good gag for "The Simpsons"......

Now where is Isaac Newton?

There must be an equation for this.

:D:D:D
Thats what I was thinking

[ladas]

Surely it would make more sense to fit airbags (and a parachute) to pedestrians

Sh*t...that man with the red flag is gonna have to be a sprinter!! :p :p :twisted:

He won't have to run to fast for you Numpty's Missus. I saw how fast you drove along the F3 near Gosford.

That Scroobie bloke is a dead set pain the rectum. We have had him on our case for yonks about allowing cars to park with near side wheels on the footpath in narrow streets.

He reckons this is dangerous. What a muppet.

That's because we had some loser in a Pord Palcom slowing us down. Or was he trying to get a better look at the blonde in the drivers seat.:twisted:

Was tht the blonde giving me the finger of the rude guy hanging out of the window hurling abuse at the Pord Palcom driver?

All of the above.:D
And Merry Festive Season to you and yours.

[shorty943]

What blonde?

[Bigbjorn]

What blonde?
Missus Numpty has the Series full of blondes for shed christenings. Sure it wasn't them?

[shorty943]

Seem to remember lots of cute redheads in that near Brisbane area. Hmm. Must arrange to meet in the middle of somewhere, sometime. We can build a shed, eat burned dead animals, drink beer, and feel unwell the next day.

Shorty.

Many years ago I was in the left lane on Parramatta Rd. Up ahead and to the right was a sports car with a blonde, hair streaming behind her, sitting in the passenger's seat.

I worked my way forward to have a perv. When I got there, gawd! She was a dog. :eek:

I mean it. It was a wolfhound or similar. :D

But did stop you perving?

But did stop you perving?

Did you mean "But did you stop perving?"

The answer to both questions is "Yes!"

I saw a new GT Mustang on the freeway the other day, jet black, top down with Blonde hair blowing in the wind. Pulled up alongside for the perve, what a sight. The poor girl had a nose the size of Pharlap's. I'm glad she had such a bloke magnet of a car, IMHO it's the only way she'd even get blokes looking in her direction. She was the personification of Pinocchio.

SPR rating of at least 15, and that would have to be full strength
