Safety comes  before harmony.
"There can be no divided allegiance here.  Any man who says he is an American,
but something else also, isn't an American at all.  We have room for but one
flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is
the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907

amen... and that concludes todays sermon.... cakes and tea at Mrs Fabrs house straight after the service and a working bee at the........ seriously... I could not agree more.

We've had this conversation before and one of us (I cant remember who) said it was normal to do a quick run every now and then without belts or helmets... I say its not. Apart from loading the car on and off the trailer, anyone who was in it always was kitted up, no exceptions. Mars is the same now as well, pity he had to get injured to learn that lesson though.

Do you really want me to respond to that?  Ok, I will.
I sincerely believe you lack certain abilities.....Like thinking things through.
It is one thing to be dumb enough to go for a test drive without safety gear,  everybody has done it at some point, even myself.

It requires an immense amount of stupidity to....

Risk the life of someone else on said test drive.
Get lots of video of you risking BOTH of your lives.
And to top it all off....Posting said video of said test drive for all those that previously cautioned you about wearing said safety gear.

Calm down guys, I guess it IS his privelege and his passengers likewise to be unsafe. Not my idea of a good idea but I'M NOT getting in anyones buggy without 5 points. Period.

Oh C'mon, I was VERY careful with my wording so that you could not accuse me of name calling.  You went and did it anyway....

Although I totally agree with the safety sentiment expressed here, I suspect Voodoo knew it and was merely overcome by the all too familiar (at least to me) want - no, need - to get in it after all that time and give it a bit of a fang. I'm confident he'll get the belts and lid together in short order.

Keep up the good work.

I have a point that goes back to the previous issue about health systems. We pay a Medicare Levy here of 1.5% of our gross income per annum. If you are a high income earner its 2.5%. Thats how we fund our 'reasonable' but not brilliant health system, Insurance is an option but costly.

Therefore if someone decides to ...say... ride their Ducati WITHOUT a helmet and gets severely injured (say brain dead), MY levy (my TAX) is going to suppport that person for the time that they live even though their condition is a result of THEIR choice.....

SO here in Aus I would protest loudly about someone doing what Voods has done UNLESS they possess insurance...

But I am not....... 1/ a US citizen and 2/ in the US 3/ in possession of all the facts.

And for what its worth, if I had just gotten my beasty going after so much work a nd time ID WANT TO DRIVE IT! (I just wouldnt advertise it......)

And as a post note.... ive done it too when about Voods age.....

and when you wake up, you'll all have this lil pearl of wisdom.......HOW TO SWEAR AT PEOPLE - 101 (without actually doing it...)

Example....

Artie ..... "Fabr, I cant call you an arsehole on this forum can I?"

Fabr ....... "No Artie you cant call me an arsehole on this forum"

Artie........ "But i can THINK you are an arsehole cant I?"

Fabr......"Yes I suppose you can think I am an arsehole"

Artie...... "OK, Fabr, I think you are an arsehole!"

See? I didnt call Fabr an arsehole, yet Im sure had this been a real situation (no no its not..... ::)) that he would get the picture.... subtlety boys subtlety.....

BTW,it only takes a split second for disaster to happen. There's no excuse for not having and  using safety equipment. Bad enough  not having a helmet but no belts? C'mon. No excuse.
