Default England car flags & accidents

Due to the increase in road traffic accidents the DVLA (Driver Vehicle
Licensing Association) have announced a new scheme aimed at reducing thisalarming
statistic.

From now on any driver deemed as being a bit stupid and likely to do
something silly whilst in a car will be issued with a warning flag. This
flag will be white with a red cross and will be flown in a prominent
position from the owners car.


Although these drivers are quite dangerous the ones to really watch out
for are those flying 2, 3 or even 4 warning flags. These people have a
very limited driving ability and should definitely be given a wide
berth.


An AA spokesman has said that those deemed safe, intelligent drivers
have welcomed this move.

Last weekend whilst drinking, me and a few mates were gonna go and clear the local village of all of the stupid flags, for some reason that i can not remember we never did it!!! lol

Wish i had brought loads of boxes of them and put them all on E-Bay, could have been rich by now!!!

IMO they look gay and i hope they damage your car if you have them fitted, if cars were ment to have flags they would have fitted flag poles in the factory!!! pmsl
