Even worse is when you think 'oh Christ I left the iron on!' then instantly remember that you didn't, but that plummeting feeling in your stomach just won't go away.

Horrible feeling. We've got a unit in Mobberley and I was there on my own last week. End of the day, lock up, get in my car and drive home. Half way down the M56 and and I've got this nagging doubt I've left the lights on and the air compressor.
Have to do massive detour, in rush hour, and get back there. Open up, and I've turned off the lights and compressor!
A 45 minute journey turns in to a 3 hour journey. I

Despite even heavier penalties now being eligible for using mobile phones while driving, this morning on the M60 no fewer than five cars in a row overtook me with the driver either clearly holding and talking into a mobile held up in front of them or worse still, texting... and as I was on cruise control at 50mph in a restricted speed area, they were all speeding too !!! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

If there is such a thing as re-incarnation, I think I'd want to come back as a traffic cop - I would solve the congestion problem by oiking all these idiots off the road with bans.

Road moderation in the extreme ;)

Not just texting mate...they've got Facebook and Twitter to catch up with as well. Sadly, before they realise what prats they are being, someone will pay for their stupidity.
I got caught speeding a couple of years back, bad enough, but when I go to my mates house, his missus gives me the old "well, you shouldn't speed then should you, thems the rules" etc etc. Two weeks later, I'm on the 58 and pass a focus. It's my mates missus, driving, with their two kids in the back and she's tapping away on her phone.
Next visit to my mates house, I grass her up and he rightly goes mental at her. That wiped the smug look right off her face.

Does my head in that.

Once in my life I've used my phone when driving and I drove straight through a zebra crossing when two old people were at the start of it.

Really shook me up, and I've always switched my phone off when driving since.

Bloody mum's fault, she kept phoning me and I thought something was up.
