lectrolove Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I'm wondering if he had to have the hour-long phone call to his insurers like the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course not. He's Admiral of the Fleet so he outranks Admiral Insurance. Seriously. It takes some force to roll a 2.5 ton Range Rover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obelix Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Looking at the damage it doesnt seem either car was hit significantly enough to roll over a Discovery. I'm wondering if he binned it on the way to the T junction (there is a sharp bend on the road that joins the main road there.) He rolled over the main road and the other car crashed avoiding him....?

Top Cats Hat Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I bet they won't prosecute him but I suspect he will be persuaded to surrender his licence. Fair play for him to still be driving at that age but somebody could have been killed yesterday. The dodgy solicitor who got Beckham off his speeding case has just said on the BBC that the CPS will almost certainly decide that it would not be in the public interest to prosecute him.

apelike Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 No one has asked the obvious questions though: should someone of that age (97) be driving on the roads or should it be compulsory for anyone over a certain age group to have a regular tests to confirm they are fit to drive?

Obelix Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 If you look at old drivers, like over the age of 75, and young drivers like under the age of 25, who has the most accidents? The younger ones. About three times more. Why the absolute insistence on castigating elderly drivers? It's ageism nothing more and you certainly shouldnt be participating in it, from either end of the argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
