OFF the road. Please!! - henry k
On the A3 this afternoon. It's a three lane dual carriageway with 50 mph limit. I was just climbing up the Malden underpass when the traffic all slowed down where the slip road joins and also exits so its four lanes. The reason was a contented driver in his 4 wheel pavement mobile who, having negotiated the underpass, was now performing a perfect left hand signal to cross over the slip road.

He survived but for how long?
What can you say but Be attentive?

I am certainly seeing more of these pavement mobiles in the traffic. Is it just happening in the Surrey stockbroker belt or is it country wide?

I can't find any pavements here in Cornwall, so I guess it's not happening here :)

If you're refering to those old person electric thingys then I'm afraid they're not pavement mobiles - it's illegal to drive them on the pavement!
