Bairnardo Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 That's one angle. Another angle is - the presence of a person on a road shouldn't be a green light for a seething motorist to run them over in their unnecessarily massive motor because they've been delayed by 15 minutes on their pishy school run or whatever. Motorists don't own the fkin roads, nor do all legal and moral obligations disappear just because you're a car driver and you think the road belongs to you.This. The number of people in the last week I have heard casually claim they would themselves, or think its ok for others to hurt or even kill protestors is mind blowing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Someones going to give these fannies a sore face sooner or later. CLIMATE protesters have been letting down the tyres on SUVs in Glasgow. Anonymous protesters have reportedly targeted vehicles parked in the West End of the city, where the COP26 climate conference is being held. Jamie MacConnacher flagged one incident on Twitter. Sharing an image of a flyer left by the protesters alongside one of a flat tyre, he wrote: “Vehicles around the west end have been targeted overnight. “Understand the need for change but acts of vandalism and criminal damage are not the answer!” He told the BBC he had come downstairs to find his "two front tyres had been totally deflated 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Is a Land Rover an SUV or a 4x4? I drive an SUV, I want to know if I’m safe from the marauding Swampies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 They're only deflating the tires. Just keep a foot pump in the boot and yer fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_Stewart Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 People that live in a City Centre and drive a 4x4 or SUV are almost exclusively fucking arseholes. Insulate Britain proving once again to be a great bunch of lads. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Probably convenient to allow a war to develop between the crusties and the Evoque leasers. Takes the pressure off when set targets end up being missed as everyone will be too busy fighting battles that really don't matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk89 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 As much as I'm not a fan of the latest fashion to have an SUV, there are people who genuinely need them due to mobility issues. My parents as an example whilst not having any form of disability are in their late 60s and are starting to struggle to get into anything lower down now, they've been forced into an SUV as they can't get another C-Max. When I sold mobility cars it was genuinely a sad day for the customers when the Toyota Verso was taken off sale as private customers had completely abandoned the market segment. This forced alot of these drivers into SUVs they didn't necessarily want and aren't necessarily as capable of what they need. Your average fanny in a Qashqai doing the 2 minute school run on the other hand deserves to have their wheels replaced by bricks. (The dislike of SUVs is nothing to do with the climate, I just think they are shite, overpriced and compromised in alot of ways compared to the cars they are based on.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one, but, like you say, it's out of necessity. Our two oldest daughters are disabled and the oldest in particular has mobility issues which make getting in and out of a 'regular' car very difficult for her, not to mention she needs a particular type of car seat which doesn't fit into many smaller cars. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
