Has anyone else seen the latest press release from the DVLA?
In order to assist other motorists in identifying potentially dangerous drivers, it's now compulsory for anyone with a lower than average driving ability to display a warning flag
The flag (consisting of a red cross on a white background) will be attached to the top of at least one door of their vehicle.
For drivers of exceptionally low ability, additional flags are required.
ROTFLMBO ... seriously, where did that come from?
Very good John, I wondered why I was seeing so many of them recently :-)

It seems it's compulsory for taxi drivers in Hull to carry two such flags, which really says something! :-)

I thought everyone in Hull was mad on rugby (league)

According to a friend of mine who works for Hull City Council over 70% of Private Hire drivers in Hull have a prison record.

This 'ullian is, but there's also the small matter of Hull City AFC, by far the best supported club in the second and third divisions last season.
Personally I think the only saving grace about Euro 2004 is that with Rugby League and Cricket played at the same time it is at least possible to avoid the bloody thing!
John.
You've got to get out of it somehow :-)

LOL. Thanks for that John.
Although I thought that message may have originated in Michael Owen land - North Wales :-)

It always tickled me that the maternity home, prison and cemetry were next door to one another. One could complete one's whole life in about 100yds.

Hear, hear. I'm going to see Kent play the West Indies on Monday week, and I am looking forward to it greatly.
I've been up to the Gauge O exhibition at Pollockshaws, Glasgow today. Didn't see any of those flags but there were some blue ones with white crosses stuck on the back of quite a few vehicles, does that mean "passed"? Or perhaps "passed over"?
Ken.
The message from Ken Parkes contains these words:
Nah! It means that they're "cross" because they aren't involved...
Are you by any chance the Dave of Frodsham who sold me a Triumph 2 Litre Razor Edge Saloon in the 1970's?

That's whisky-land matey, it don't mean "passed" at all - it means "pissed"! ;-)

Prison record? Would that be 'Jailhouse Rock' by any chance? ;o)

Nah! Don't do dodgy motors, me, mate!
