ThreeSheds Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 On Radio 2 news - a woman has been charged with drink driving after mounting the curb and killing a baby. Dreadful news, and my sympathy goes out to the family of the child. But why oh why do they feel the need to say: "When a four-by-four mounted the curb" :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denviks Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 its not only the bbc now. i sat listning to a local radio sation a few days back. the 1st story was that of mr butterfied, and how the land rover he was driving was involved in an accident. the land rover's trailer left the road ...etc. the next story was that of a young lad driving his car which he lost control of at a too high speed and ploghed through someones house killing his passenger . that is pure double standards.... they didnt say the young lad was driving a citroen or pergeout :angry: :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe1970 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 There should be no grey area with drink driving you either drink or you drive the legal limit should be zero. It makes no difference what vehicle is driven there is no excuse IMO !!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exmoor Beast Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I reckon Land Rover should get their solicitors to write a stiff letter to the BBC as this is getting totally out of hand IMHO. Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
