It's to give you something else to moan about other than Winter Tyre threads.
 
It took 18 minutes for it turn into an anti-cycling war. Good going. :(

She is eating a bowl of cereal. Of course she's completely in the wrong. Chances are if you eat a bowl on your driving test you'd fail.

It's not a gimmick, it's just me being irritating.
There isn't much in life that winds me up except Magnolia's rantings and idiot motorists who say I shouldn't cycle on the road because I don't pay road tax.
If you spent a week in my cycle shoes you'd see why it irritates the **** out of me.
So therefore it is my duty to correct every idiot who thinks they own the road because they pay road tax.

I would also like to add that I have never had problems with white van drivers and large vehicle drivers, it's always idiot motorists in cars.

I'm a cyclist...and other cyclists do my head in...they are too cautious stop at red lights and don't take enough risks to keep moving...

I mean I actually see some cyclist put their feet down at traffic lights...if it's a pedestrian crossing and you have to wait for people...you balance surely !

Yep, because she's not moving, she's not eating with her braking foot and it is perfectly possible to just put the bowl down on the passenger seat and move on.
It's the same for the law on mobiles, even if she was stationary in traffic with the handbrake on, she is still in charge of a vehicle and it's still "illegal". Is that common sense or is it just legal pedantry?

Meanwhile Mr Nanny State is weaving all over the road and proving a unexpected and agitated distraction for everyone around him, and judging by the loud squealing in other videos his brakes are crap too.

If I was a woman I'd be really freaked at a mentalist in Lycra screaming orders at me, while I was quietly minding my own business waiting at some traffic lights. The guy is a menace.

I'm all for not driving like a loon, but assessing risk sensibly is part of that, and at that exact moment she wasn't posing a real or actual risk to anyone.

They're both idiots.

I don't get the reference to nanny state comment, that's nothing to do with this. She is in charge of a running vehicle, on a public highway. It's irresponsible and selfish. There really isn't a grey area here in my eyes. If you want to eat a bowl of cereal, don't do it whilst driving a vehicle. If you want to use your mobile, don't do it whilst driving a vehicle. Whether the woman's vehicle is in motion or not, she is sat on a public highway in traffic DRIVING A VEHICLE.
 
Anyone who doesn't know how to use a speaker on a phone when driving to take a call shouldn't be allowed behind a wheel.

As for eating...is it because it a bowl and spoon not a cereal bar ?

OK, so what do you do while sitting at traffic lights? do you sit there bolt upright with your hands at ten to two on the steering wheel, staring ahead on full alert but checking all three mirrors and monitoring your fuel level just in case.

Or do you do what everyone else does, fiddle with the stereo and look aimlessly out of the side window?

I'll tell you I did, I cleaned the fluff of my passenger seat and went through a few receipts. With the engine running and without even holding the wheel!!! :mad:
Then when the traffic moved a few years I stuck it in drive and moved forward a few metres, I probably steered it with my knee :eek:

In the process I mowed down a group of school children, before ramming into a passing ambulance which then exploded into a fireball.
Oh wait, sorry that didn't happen, the car drifted to a halt again and I went back to waiting.
 
I'm not arguing the toss about it with you. If you're not concentrating on your surroundings whilst driving then you're just another moron on the road.

No need to argue that.

She's a moron. There's hundreds of thousands of them on the road right now. There's no real need to broadcast the video, shout her down in the middle of the street and start a one man campaign. It's just triviality.

OK, so you always sit there staring at the car in front of you whilst stationary, fully concentrating on your surroundings, hands at 10-2 because doing otherwise would 100% kill everyone.

Yep, that's totally not BS at all... :p
