Not a cheap shot at all Mate, If I did something as stupid as this I would expect to wear the consequences of my actions.Quote:

It is So easy to be magnanimous about something that doesn't directly affect me or you But lets face reality this woman did a reckless act and should be held accountable for that action it's as simple as that.
Taking personal digs at me is childish and I find it to be offensive simply because I have a different opinion about this incident than you do.
Please keep it civil fellas. As you all know personal attacks will not be tolerated. The whole thing is very sad and not a nice subject to be making assumptions on.

As for look in the mirror, you were set to hang this women, while the family of one boy were set to forgive. And why? their religion. The much maligned Muslim religion , that mainstream Australia vilifies, teaches them to forgive. I'm sure the woman will be treated equally as any other under the law of the Nation. But no punishment man can dish out, will equal the horror this poor women must feel. All I ask is, hold off on your keyboard kangaroo courts, until the facts are known. Not having a go at you, BTW, just the internet warriors who jump all over incidents like this, before the facts are known.
Father of boy killed in Sydney school smash forgives driver
I imagine that this woman IS feeling pretty awful at the moment But unless there has been some sort of catastrophic mechanical failure/incident then this woman IS responsible for her actions and should be dealt with accordingly.
When driving around Any school Extreme caution Must be used at all times and it appears that this wasn't the case in this instance and for someone with 19 grandkids that are at school or will be going there shortly I find this to be inexcusable and thoughtless.
BTW I personally do Not hold Any religious beliefs and yet I forgave the idiot woman that drove on the wrong side of the road that caused the death of a good Mate and put me in hospital with a ruined arm/hand So religion has Nothing to do with forgiveness as far as I am concerned.
In this instance the woman Did spend some time incarcerated But at the end of the day she was deported and will never be able to make the same mistake again in Australia.
With respect to floor mats etc, I've found that driving in thongs has caused an issue with me from time to time,..catching on the mats, slipping around on my foot etc, so I don't drive in thongs any more.

I have never worn thongs as I think that they would be rather uncomfortable and creep up my bum [bigwhistle][bigrolf]Quote:

Pat303, you would have laughed at this stupid woman that made a complaint about me picking up my little brother and niece from there local primary school...
She complained about me using the prime mover to get the kids on my way to my mothers place.. Her complaint was she had to slow right down to go past the truck...This was right out the front of the school...
Principle was laughing so much she had trouble telling me about the complaint... The stupid woman drove a 4wd and would roar off once her kids where on board, so the principle asked if I could drop by more often as it was safer when the truck was there...
I suppose if it was in a suburb in the city I would be in trouble tho...Luckily it was rural... But then, it was over 20 years ago, so i presume nothing has got better...
The side line to this, is my niece and brother got to ride in the Kenworth every month or so and could tell stories to all the other kids, next day...
