It's just a hill. Get over it.

    Okay, he shouldn't have done it, especially considering what he was carrying but I think the real moronic bit was not being able to follow the line of the road.

    I heard one of the kids on the radio yesterday, and it really felt that they were saying all the right things to lay the course for compensation.


    The older I get, the better I was.

    He is an incompetent and irresponsible driver if he genuinely thought he could drive through that depth of water and not get into problems, should be prosecuted for endangering the lives of his charges and have his PSV licence revoked. The road was closed so he should not have been there in the first place, but no, he knew better than the authorities.

    He's no worse than Nigel Farage, the permanent winner of the f'tard of the week award.

    Merkel is not a moron, she's just a politician doing what politicians do.

    As for driving through floods, there have been a lot of pics round here of people getting stuck in a flood: fairly normal idiocy you might think, but raised to impressively moronic heights by the fact that this flood is distinguished by having the clearly visible roof of a car sticking out of the water:

    Labour and Tory for failing to take us out of European convention, during times of war.... would appear Brown and DC once again asleep on the job.
