Take Care on the Roads This Christmas
A flying visit to Brisbane and return yesterday (thanks to Rick down at Fraser Coast Computers who swapped cars with us after the driver’s side electric window winder broke on our Hyundai Granduer - the front passenger side window winder broke two weeks ago) showed us that there are still lots of idiots out there on the road so take care.
Old men in hats and younger women with an attitude problem seemed to be causing the most annoyance to other drivers but then there was the older woman who decided that while other traffic was moving along briskly at 100 kph she would overtake into the face of oncoming traffic at 105.
The police are out in force but they can’t be everywhere at once so take care and make allowances for the idiots out there who simply have no clue about driving safely.
Yesterday also seemed to be a day for breaking down. On the return trip we must have passed 10 cars pulled over on the side of the road waiting for assistance.
The hot weather is brutal on any car that is not in top condition so make sure your car is ready for the trip before you leave home.
