Thread: What’s the difference between School Mom Drivers and Hoons.

I dont think it matters whether they are in a prado or a hatchback, most state schools have no logical means by with which to drop off or pick up children. The state school which my kids use to go to had no pick up or drop off are and only offered reverse in parking on both sides of the road and NO LOLLLYPOP OR CROSSING. We recently moved the kids to a small catholic school where there are 2 massive drop off and pick up areas as well as a seperate bus area as well as a lollypop.

4wd's in school areas arent the problem, its the fact that you have a heap of impatient mums fighting to get through the traffic jam created by poor planning.

In a Land Rover...not a flashy one either, it was old!! I didn't double park nor speed nor squeal the tyres (well not on purpose anyway).....not ALL school mums are idiots

yes but your no ordinary mum or ordinary woman I have no doubt that at some time in your future your grand kids are going to be dedicating to you the theme song to a certain 80's kids tv show

you know the one


Stand back Superman, Iceman, Spiderman. Batman and Robin too
Don’t wanna cause a fracas, but BA Baracas, have I got a match for you.
She makes them look like a bunch of fairies.
She’s got more bottle than United Dairies.



or should I have done that in the skulls thread.

You gotta love those stereotypes.

Mums in school zones

Belongs in the same category as "4wds should be banned" & "Volvo drivers are hopeless"

Where is the analysis of:

• Parking arrangements near schools
• Recognition that in today's society most both parents have to work to pay off that $400,000 first home mortgage.
• Often Dad's do the "drop off" - in the Mazda 2.
• Society is more dangerous so walking alone to school kicking a tin can is not an option.

Sorry to go all serious but we as 4wders are often the victim of ignorant sterotypes so we shouldn't generate them.

Harold Scruby makes a living out of this type of nonsense.








OK , maybe the volvo stereotype is reasonable

I think some of you have missed the point.

I’m not accusing every MUM ( or dad ) of being idiots, what I’m suggesting, as per the conversation my mate and I had, that those who do behave like idiots should get the same penalties that hoons get.

The law is in place, just extend it's range of use.

Yeah you're right - I missed your point.

Agree.

theres a difference between choosing to drive like an idiot, and not being capable of driving otherwise

Not really, they both cause accidents and fatalities. One is just an idiot and the other is incompetent. Not actually sure who is really more dangerous, but I have had more near misses from incompetent drivers than hoons. Not condoning either however.
It also depends on what you deem hoon behaviour. There is so much now thrown into that basket it is ridiculous and not what the legislation was intended for.

Most of them have nice tits but !!
I always slow down and look closely.
