eastcoast 4,348 Posted Thursday at 20:25 Report Share Posted Thursday at 20:25 The cars that most are posting about could be recognised in a black silhouette, most of the cars on the roads now could not.

They no longer enjoy a car or enjoy driving and as a consequence drive like c**ts, with a combination of fear and anger. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
